How do I get it to her reliably, and untraceably? Does the post office have "sniffers" or anything that can detect cash? I know sending cash is risky. Other methods? Gold? Rare stamps? Suggestions please.

You better check the laws on sending that amount to ANY COUNTRY.
Japan may have their own limits on cash coming in.
Don't even think about sending cash.
Homeland Security will definitely get involved on money going out of the US.
You may consider small amounts. Certainly well under $10,000.00.
I hope it's legal money on your part, and taxes paid on it. That could be trouble, big time.
Hope this isn't an on-line romance. Geeeezzz!

If you do not declare the transfer -- any transactions over $10,000 must be filed with Customs and the IRS -- you risk seizure of the funds and possibly a long prison terms for both of you as well. Transfers are not limited to just cash. Any highly liquid form of financial transaction is subject to the rules.
And we're not going to help you break the law, either.
For the information of other posters here, Western Union transfers are limited to $2,999.00 per 30 days -- it would take 11 months to send $10k by WU. Wire transfers over $10,000.00 are subject to the declaration and notification rules as well. Banks watch these very closely these days due to the potential links to terrorism or drug activity and watch closely for aggregate transactions submitted to avoid the $10k rule. Most wire transfers to and from the US go through the ACH system so the Feds know about EVERY transfer.

An international bank wire is a good option. You would be best to send several bank wires to remain below the radar.

Get courier going to Japan. For nominal price, courier will carry your girlfriend an envelope in checked bag. They don't look in checked bags. Of course, luggage handlers probably steal it if they find it. Good luck!

TT from bank or using international money order from post office.
But don't send that huge amout of money.
That kind of girlfriend who request you to send money is NOT normal Japanese, unless you 2 are getting married.
That types of person is strange for Japanese sense.
Did you meet her in person? is she really Japanese?
Maybe not.

Reliably is not a problem.
Untraceable is a big problem..
Rare stamps may be a good idea...
