Hi Bobbi,
Here are the service descriptions from USPS for money order (from USPS Pub.
201):
Money Orders
You should never send cash through the mail. Postal money orders are a safe
way to send money. The special color blend, Benjamin Franklin watermark,
metal security thread, and double imprinting of the dollar amount are
incorporated security features. You can buy domestic and international money
orders at all post offices in amounts up to $700. You can purchase multiple
money orders at one time in the same or different amounts. There is a
$10,000 daily purchase limit, and customers who purchase more than $3,000 in
money orders in a single day are required by federal law to complete Form
8105-A, Funds Transactions/Transfer Report. Military money orders can be
purchased only on U.S. military ships and foreign bases.
If your money order is lost or stolen, you must present your customer
receipt to apply for a replacement. For a small fee, you can obtain a copy
of a paid money order up to 2 years after the date that it is paid.
HTH, George
