So you have a choice of how to spend $300, do you buy a 4 oz set form the mint? Or what would you buy? To keep it fair lets just say coins you have bought this year for $300 or less. Personally I'd take any of these, but then again I'm just a coin collector.

My favorite this year was this one at $295.
Personally, this was a good purchase for under $300, key Zurich 65mm shooting medal
