Australian Mint Gold Products

Since the U.S. Mint is having such difficulty keeping gold coins on the market, let's take a look at the Royal Australian Mint. Currently the Mint's online catalog includes 9 individual Australian gold coins and one set of three Commonwealth gold coins. I'll give the listed international prices, within Australia there is GST added. I've eliminated cents and used a conversion rate of .698299...of course this changes daily.
