after posting this I went to look at a scan of the book ( the real thing is in th SD Box so I don't have to search for those Holy Grails). The marker is actually Red and orange to match the cover.

 

I have attached a scan of that book under the restoration section

For the gold the top 5 Grails that I own are:

 

Superboy #1 VF+

New Yorks World's Fair 1940 VF

World's Best # 1 F+(last page reattached)

Sensation # 1 (restored) F

 

The 5th is a little harder, but until a shipment comes in tommorow I guess it would be Superman # 14
