The Hope Diamond once traveled through ordinary mail
HERE’S THE INTERESTING PART
When a massive, famously cursed diamond worth millions needed to reach the Smithsonian, nobody hired heavily armed guards or a secure convoy. Instead, a jeweler just stuffed it into a plain brown box, paid slightly over a hundred bucks for postage, and trusted the standard mail carrier. Amazingly, it arrived perfectly intact without cursing anyone along the route.
One discovery leads to another.
