Dates? Slabbing company? Grade? Seller? Pictures? We need this info to make good opinions or suggestions.

What kind of opinions are you seeking?

Judging by the OP's title, I think he may be asking whether coins of this type are evaluated as a set or as individual coins. I would say unless someone is trying to buy all three coins at a steal/bargain, these coins should be evaluated individually. Unless you are trying to get rid of them quickly.

A little more information would be useful in getting your question answered.

Yeah, I'm a little lost but if you are suggesting buying or selling together I would say yes to buying them as a lot if possible as a better price may be had. If you are selling do it separately to maximize gains
Rest in Peace

The only way I can think they would be sold as a set is if the are all the same year? Too lazy to see if that is even possible.

I created merriment & confusion - sorry.

I apologize for my poor phrasing...the 3 coins are as described (i.e. an 1873 TD; an 1873 half dollar and an 1873 quarter dollar)

These 3 coins have already been slabbed (PCGS) and graded as proof (PR62 & PR63)

The question was meant to be: Should they be considered as a "set", or individually?

(I am not asking anyone to evaluate the coins so no pics are necessary)

I would say individually because 1) you would turn off a lot of buyers (assuming you are selling) if buying allthree coins was a part of the deal, and 2) you don't have the complete proof set, so selling the three coins as a set would be a slight misnomer.

Individually. If I want to build a set, I build it coin by coin.
