Thanks everyone for your congratulations on getting the coin back! I appreciate it a lot and am very happy to have it back. I intend on selling the coin and giving some of the income to the person that notified me about the appearance of the coin. Merit will be given too
congrats for getting the coin back!
just out of curiosity, how did you got your coin back? as far as I understand, someone stole it from the mail, and tried to auction it on GovDeals. How did you managed to get your coin back after filling the lost mail report? Did USPS investigated & found the identity of the user trying to sell the stolen coin in GovDeals?
Govdeals.com is a site where surplus government items are auctioned off. This includes items lost in the mail. Someone saw the picture of my 2014 Ravenbit MS 68 coin and sent me a PM on Bitcointalk to let me know it may be my item, along with an image of it. I checked govdeals auctions and the coin had the same digits as my lost coin. I contacted govdeals live chat and asked for the contact information for the seller. I also asked the seller a question online. In addition, I filed another lost mail claim form on USPS.com and referenced my original lost mail claim from Feb 2018. I spent time on the phone with several people and sent a bunch of emails. It paid off, because the next day USPS shipped my item back to me, and I have it in my hands now.
