It depends on the grades of the coins in the set, most sets that I see are in the grade range of Very Fine or below and are of low value, $20.00 to $25.00. Complete sets of Jefferson nickels are common.
Jefferson's picture is on nickels dated 1938 and later. Lincoln's picture is on cents dated 1909 and later. Please determine which one you have and post a new question.
For the most part, 5 cents each.
16 different Jefferson nickels are in this span of dates, 11 are 35% silver, 5 are cppper-nickel. Post new question.
Jefferson nickels dated before 1964 have the mint mark on the back, directly to the right of Monticello (except for the silver "war" nickels, where the mint mark is larger and above Monticello).
Liberty Nickels were made from 1883-1912, a Jefferson nickel dated 1940 is still found in circulation, a uncirculated coin may be worth 50 cents.

US Jefferson nickels dated 1963 are still found in circulation and are only face value.
Jefferson nickels dated before 1964 have the mint mark on the back, directly to the right of Monticello (except for the silver "war" nickels, where the mint mark is larger and above Monticello).
All 2002 nickels have a picture of Monticello on the back. The only Jefferson nickels to carry an image of a buffalo (actually a bison) were dated 2005 and they're only worth face value if you find them in change.
U.S. nickels dated 1964 or earlier contain the same copper/nickel blend as those dated 1965 and later. The only nickels that DO contain silver are "war" nickels dated 1942-1945, distinguishable by the large mint mark above Monticello.
Liberty Nickels were made from 1883-1912, a Jefferson nickel dated 1940 is still found in circulation, a uncirculated coin may be worth 50 cents.
It's a common coin, worth about $2 for the silver (nickels dated 1942-1945 are the only ones that contain any silver).
5 cents each. They're old but not rare. 1964 had mintage numbers of more than a billion.
Please check again and post a new question. Buffalo nickels were struck from 1913 to 1938. Any nickel dated 1943 would be a familiar Jefferson nickel.
That's a very broad question because there are about 90 different combinations of dates, mint marks, and major varieties. Most Jefferson nickels dated 1938 to 1963 are not worth a significant premium, but there are some exceptions:1938-D : $1 to $30 depending on condition1938-S : $1 to $251939-D : $2 to $80"War nickels" 1942 to 1945 : $2 to $151950-D : $5 to $20Except for those "war nickels" that contain about 1.5 gm of silver, ALL other US nickels regardless of date are made of an alloy of 25% nickel and 75% copper. The only 90% silver denominations made up to 1964 were dimes, quarters, and halves.
