Are these coins (which are not normally legal tender) covered for compensation (up to £20?) for loss etc if sent by standard 1st or 2nd class mail?

No.

You would have to send special delivery to be insured.


Quote- Compensation cover up to £50. Excludes jewellery and money (coins, cash, postal orders, bonds and coupons or vouchers exchanges for money, goods or services, which includes tickets).

Thank you Postie - does this include commemorative medallions of low value?
