The coin I bought originated in Deerfield, IL 9 hey that was almost Dearborn) anyway, it started in IL and is supposed to go to Phoenix, AZ in CONUS - but instead it detoured to Honolulu, HI.
It got there at midnight today (July 14) and I just got a new update (a USPS Text) that it is on scheduled to be delivered "ON-TIME on July 14!

Similar has happed with me--not frequent, but does happen on occasion. Had a coin coming to me from the east coast--it arrived in my greater metro area, then ended up detouring through the Pacific Northwest for four days before finally arriving in my mailbox.

I've had coin shipments go on long side trips courtesy of the USPS, but never that far!
