Ya know, Booby just gave up, gratis, one of the reasons he and Susan get constantly higher bids on their auctions.

For 'lesser' coins the envelope treatment is fine. To one un-named ebayer, please don't tape the coin to a card. Thank you.

Time to review those shipping methods.

Just my bit worth here:
I regularily buy coins overseas from auctions. Up to 5 coins are always shipped in small plastic envelopes inside the sticky coin card boards. They never come in a bubble bag or anything like that. They are always inside a top quality regular envelope (sometimes fibreglass enforced.) Shipping is via registered mail and as very simple letter.
more than 5 coins are packaged the same way, but in the next larger envelope.
NEVER bubble wrap...
I even get gold coins that way and never had a problem with the actual packaging or mailing.
These auction houses ship thousands of coins that way.... and, interestingly, they also provide automatically Insurance for NO cost to the buyer. It is not a shipping insurance, but they all have commercial policy, that covers shipping from them and to them.
