Custom Personalized Silver
A look at what is currently available on eBay

Need creative minds for ideas to leave on mailbox for thief?
We've all had mail miss-delivered on accident. Most people simply return the mail to post office, return to sender, or in apartments turn it into the office.
Recently I custom ordered a 1 ounce silver coin with personalized engraving which included name, honor, school, etc. It was/is a graduation gift. I paid nearly $80 for this custom item. To anyone else it's simply 1 oz of silver worth $10 at a pawn shop, with some strangers name and accomplishments on it.
Apparently it was delivered about 2 weeks ago to the wrong address, where the person who received it evidently kept it.
So I want to leave a note at our community mail box center for this person. Any ideas? Most creative and best answer gets 10 points.
I don't want to be ugly about it, I just want the coin.
I agree with the others that a civilized note be left. But, human nature being what it is, I'd bet you won't get the coin back. To write such a note implies you don't know who has it. So they're "safe" not returning it - no one will know and they'll profit, even if it's only a little.
"This coin was purchased as a gift for a special friend of mine. It was to honor an important achievment in their life - an achivement representing years of hard work and personal sacrafice. Although one might expect them to falter under such a tremendous burden, they carried on with steely resolve and steadfast integrity to see their task through, emerging, in the end, with honor, dignity and the admiration of those who supported them.
If you who have taken the coin honestly feel you can measure up to the standards my friend has met, I congratulate you. You will no doubt understand how important this coin is, that it is not just a disk of metal to be pawned off for a few dollars or left in a drawer to collect dust. You will also understand it is a lasting memento to be treasured for a lifetime, oft reminding them of the day it was presented and that wonderful, newly-won pride they felt in their accomplishment. If, however, you realize you have yet to earn the right to qualify for such a gift, please return it so it may be placed in its rightful home. There is no shame in returning it; I'll ask no questions and hold no grudges. You will have shown yourself to be a person of unquestionable integrity and honor, a person I can look upon with respect.
If you choose not to return the coin after all, then may you and all your kind die horribly.
Your most sincere neighbor,
XXXX XXXXXXXX"
