OK - maybe a little respite from all the sound and fury about bullion prices 🤣: some nice collectors coins to add to my gold Indian Head half eagle collection, focussing on the San Francisco mintmarks. Three graded and one raw (1914 S) that I hope will grade well, although you never know. I have a 1909 already, but not a good one - so this MS62 is an upgrade ! 
I am trying to educate myself on what makes some of these grade MS and some stay below the line as AU...so I can do a better job when picking raw coins....wish me luck.  
 

You've a fantastic memory! Here's the price list from the Royal Mint Coin Club for Autumn 1989 and the price was £299.95

Canadian Maples - all four metals. I really need to take a better picture of them. Little did I know at the time when I bought the palladium one that it would become the most valuable !  Fun to compare them all though.
