Thanks Guys, it looks quite different does anyone know the different values for the different coin sets ? and is specimen the same as proof?

What would you advise for a newbie to study when collecting and buying and selling coins ?

Hi All, this is my initial post and I would like it to go well lol. I purchased a proof set of the above some time ago , but from photos taken by my mobile a Numastisist has told me it is a currency set, and a coin dealer says it is likely they are currency, neither having seen them in the flesh. What defines currency set ? and how do you tell that an 1887 coin set is proof ? How would an 1887 proof look in 2018 ? Help.
