Long transit time
« on: May 15, 2016, 11:19:37 AM »
I got a coin in the mail yesterday that I had decided was lost. It is one of my longest shipping delays...I ordered the coin from France on 28 March and received it 14 May, so about six weeks.

I think that the problem was the package was a little damaged, it looked like it had gone through the sorting machine and was a little mangled.
