It means that you have a set of coins that have a specimen finish on them. Coin made for collectors are usually specimen, though this set doesn't have much of a premium.

These coins are made for collectors and are generally of higher quality than those made for regular circulation. What a "specimen" finish looks like has changed over the years.
