I have about 20 coins to send to a collector in Bulgaria. Apparently this is frowned upon by the Bulgarian government (according to the USA postal service). I'm am open to any suggestions as I really want to complete the trade.
oh, the downside is that the coins really are not that valuable. I don't want to spend close to $30 to send $3 worth of coins.
It's best to not tell the US post office you are sending coins. Popular substitutes are 'pictures' or 'hobby supplies.'
That works for me when I have to mail outside the US. I also use the automated kiosks and avoid the clerks.
Hope this helps.

I have stated "old bus tokens".
I have never been able to send international packages with the self service kiosk. It always tells me to go to the staff counter for that.

I know someone who uses the term "processed planchets" when a postal worker asks what's in his package.
