Pobjoy Mint’s 1994 Catalog & Press Release

“… I would read as easily as I do the apocrypha of the agony column.”

– The Valley of Fear (VALL)

When I first started collecting coins, I was very intrigued when I could find ephemera (advertising, invoices, order forms, etc.) related to the items in my collection. Not much has changed for me over the years.  When I reached out to the Pobjoy Mint to get information about the gold coins from the 1994 Return of Sherlock Holmes Centenary coin program, they were kind enough to respond with pictures of their 1994 catalog featuring the coins and of the press release announcing the coins.

  1. During the covid lock down i started snooping around for any information about my 1/5 oz. gold 1994 Gibraltar Sherlock commerative coins. You are the first person who seems to know anything about them. Thanks you for the information. Any idea what the value would be for the complete gold 1994 set? (8 coins).
