See my summary of the '70s models at http://retroraleighs.com/supercourse.html. This is taken from catalogs and real bikes.

Sheldon's hosting it now, but its been around for a while, I think he is the third host. So that makes three members of CR with Super Course info :-).

The only thing additional is the Mark II factor. In the mid- 70's Raleigh generally made things a little racier in the US market bike line. My 1970 has 72/72 angles, while my 1974 Mark II has, if I am remembering correctly, 73.5/74.

My 74 sounds just like the one in question: Emerald Green.

Many, but not all Super Coures have serial numbers on the bottom of the bottom bracket, so check there and if possible decode for the year.
