Answer 3

I am wondering where you came up with the term SET? 20 1881 Morgan dollars is just 20 1881 Morgan dollars and do not make up a set. The 1881 silver dollar was minted at Philadelphia (no mint mark), Carson City (CC), New Orleans (O) and San Francisco (S) one of each mint would be considered a set of 1881 Morgan silver dollars. The mint mark if any is on the eagle side near the bottom below the wreath. The Philly coin is worth $14.50-$18 in circulated grades, 1881-CC  $305.00-$345.00, the 1881-0  same as Philly one and the 1881-S $15-$18.50. The coins are worth more if in mint state. Values given are about what a dealer would pay. Hope this helps.
