I'm sending some jewelry, and coins over seas snailmail. I'm thinking I'll wrap them in aluminum foil and send snail mail. Any advice on sending?

Don't wrap in foil just zip lock bags and bubble wrap, Somewhere along the line they will be sent thru a x-ray machine. Wrapped in foil it will just show a blob of metal and its about a 90% chance it will get opened which you don't want to happen things get lost then.
If your sending a bunch look into the small priority box it ships overseas for $13.75 or so. I ship fossils and minerals to the UK several times a year like that with no problems.

The U.S. has restrictions on sending coins, etc to some countries. You may have to fill out a form on it. Normally I put in something like metal tokens or such.

Anything going over seas needs the Green sticker declaring content.    Don't Lie!

If going to any UK country, it will be confiscated by costoms.
