Any recourse???

USPS priorty mail comes with 50$ insurance. As far in your case..i guessing you eat that one, because item is not as described, right?
I have heard or read, folks write that's its your responsibility all the way to their doorstep. This is where signature confirmation comes in. some use registered mail where whenever it changes hands, it gets signed for.
Sorry for being the Debbie-downer. Just my 2cents..thats the reason I use priorty flat rate boxes, tho bubble mailers is the cheaper and cost productive route.
He could also keep the card and give the price difference/partial refund as well.

Was the slab sandwiched between a few pieces of cardboard or was it placed in the envelope loose? If it was loose it wouldn't matter where it was going, damage would be guaranteed!

No recourse unless you have insurance (through third party collectibles insurance, purchased from USPS at the time of shipping, or potentially homeowners).

I also would be interested to hear about how this item was packaged for shipment.

I don't remember, but may not have put cardboard and been careless

Consider it a lesson learned and move on. This is the risk that is run when cards are not properly packed before shipping.

I always pack well, this time, not so apparently. I don't consider "hard lessons learned" when you are literally living hand to mouth. It bleeping sucks period
