Shipping / Export modern Gold Coin into USA

[Prieure de Sion]

Salve! 

Next week I must send a modern Gold Coin (Year 2001) from Germany to USA. The amount is round about 300 USD. 

Normally 99.9% of my US-shippings are ancient coins older 100 years, so I declare the coins as „antique more than 100 years old“ - over hundreds of ancient coins I have no problem with this declaration. And all of my customers don’t must pay anytime any tax fees at import. 
 

But now I must send a modern Gold coin from year 2001 and I am not sure what description and declaration was the best for export btw. import into USA. I don’t want the recipient must pay a tax or becomes problems. 

Long story short - what’s the best declaration?

Thanks for help.

Seems like the term is "gold bullion" and should be fine to ship as long as you label it as such:

Just send coin via discreet registered letter.  Hence no customs/ fees/ hassles or theft.😇

Normally I would agree to you, but my Valoren insurance says, that I must select a shipping provider, who deliver in max 14 days. If not, no insurance.

So I will send with normal UPS Express or FedEx - hope will not lost. If it was lost, the insurance will pay 100%.

I have had only one shipment (CNG/ Triton I) with two aurei that went MIA. After that most auction houses send material discreet/( no description/ value) maybe 700-800 shipments. All arrived SAFE.
