I have seen Maundy sets from Victoria's reign sell from $150 to over $250 in the past year. The "young head" sets are usually higher priced, followed by the "jubilee head" sets, and finally the "old head" designs. Nicely toned sets of any Victorian vintage have been selling for a premium recently.
If you are interested in purchasing a Maundy Set, watch out for coins that have been polished. I have run across several sets (and many other older British coins) that were polished by collectors in the U.K.
