Collectible Vintage Sign
Mailing Coins in the post abroad?
I'm really nervous about my letter I just sent from Michigan to Australia. I have a penpal who asked if I could send a penny, nickel, and 2 quarters. So I went ahead and went to the post office. The clerk was like "Are there coins inside this?" I replied "yes". She gave me this form to fill out to say how much the value of coins were and to sign. I've been reading on here that you can't send coins to another country without going through customs. Was the sheet I filled out for customs? I paid for the letter and everything. I'm scared it won't send. I have some collectible vintage stamps I mailed along in the same letter (thats what I'm most worried about) If it did not get approved to send, would I get it mailed back to me> or is it going to take a LONG time to get to Australia going through Customs?
Customs should not care about your coins. They would have to shut down all their other business if they had to check every piece of metal entering the country.
The form you signed was to protect against a future claim by you that your coins were worth $millions.
One thing to remember is that a lot of money is stolen from the mail. One man in jail said that he stole over $40,000 in cash from his mail job before he was caught.

Antique Collectible & Flea Market Vintage Haul
Vintage Costume Jewelry: Hidden Value To The Trained Eye
Never mistake vintage costume jewelry with the cheap reproduction jewelry you see in most malls and department stores. In fact, vintage costume necklaces, bracelets, and other pieces were originally purchased by American soldiers in French boutiques, and brought home after the First World War. Trifari, Coro, and dozens of American manufacturers soon began producing the designs and pieces that have turned into some of the most prized collectibles on the vintage market today.
Unlike the fashion jewelry produced and sold today, vintage pieces have dramatically appreciated in value over the years and are expected to continue doing so in the future. Buying low and selling high is very possible in the world of vintage jewelry collecting, but identifying the most profitable pieces is an art all of its own. Investors need to look at five main areas to assess value of a vintage piece of costume jewelry:
Demand
Market Supply
Craftsmanship
Design
Condition
From basic economics we know that higher demand will lead to greater price points, and ultimately raise profits for the investor. Signed vintage necklaces, brooches, and earrings by Miriam Haskell are currently the hot items in the costume jewelry market, but being able to identify the valuable items from the pretty imitators is what separates the successful collectors from the mere hobbyist. Remember, the most popular designs are not necessarily the prettiest or most unique but they will tend to be more profitable to collect.
So why do people like some pieces but not others? Novice collectors tend to focus exclusively on signed pieces, but often the unsigned, well-designed pieces prove to be the most profitable to collect. In truth, the vast majority of vintage costume pieces are actually unsigned. Simply knowing what makes a stunning design unique can help you identify the unsigned pieces and optimize profits. The exceptional quality of jewelry designs from companies like Hollycraft and Bergere make unsigned pieces from these companies both easy to recognize and very profitable to collect.
The type and quality of gemstones used is typically the most relevant factor to the price of a vintage piece of costume jewelry. The majority of vintage costume pieces are indeed made with relatively inexpensive semi-precious materials, but seasoned collectors know that a few companies went all out and only used exceptionally high quality gemstones in their jewelry. Try locating pieces from companies like Eisenberg or Bogoff as they almost always used the best stones possible. Other designers who have excellent craftsmanship and design with great potential to buy low and sell high include Kramer, Danecraft, and Trifari.
Last but certainly not least, the condition of the jewelry plays a critical role in its value. With some pieces nearing 100 years old, it is quite common to find vintage jewelry showing significant signs of wear including scratches, peeling, discoloration, and even missing stones. But while some degree of wear is expected, it is not the only factor that determines price. Collecting vintage costume pieces is still a very profitable venture for anyone knowing how to identify the truly profitable pieces.
