    I have not been able to come up with a value of what this set is worth. It is uncirculated with the silver 50 and 25 Piso. Thank you for your help on value or resources for this coin. It is complete with case and paperwork of Authenticity.

    I have found numerous 8 coin set but have been told the 2 coin is rare. No luck finding price on it. Thanks.

    The above set posted by Kentucky may be an (U) uncirculated prooflike set as there is a marked lack of cameo, but hard to tell for sure. Packaging types such as this two coin proof have not shown to have increased value over the full set that is inclusive of the two coins as well. Philippines later FM proofs are on the rise however so hard to tell for sure what it would fetch on ebay (not a local LCS shop).

    There is plenty more frost shown on the OP's coins. Stock photos are just that tendered coins and not a representative of the coins you will recieve.

    Yes, I agree and that is why I tried to state in that way. His are (P) proof and the set appear (U) prooflike uncirculated.

    So are you saying the two coin uncirculated proof set will be less than what the 8 coin set sells for on EBay? Would it be wise to have them graded?

    No, not IMHO enough value. Also most collectors like the original packaging including the box and certificate of authenticity (COA) if possible.
    The Philippines sets have been going for a lot more these days - I bought the 8 coin set for about 40.00 USD 8-10 years ago, but who knows as this 2 coin set might go for 150 or 200. Auction sales on ebay have been all over the place.

    @Richard Kennedy I came across your posting late, but perhaps the following 3 Links may be of help to you:

    (1) from NumismaticsPhillipines a very comprehensive description of the issue and it's history--https://www.numismatics.ph/coins/coin-set/1978-manuel-l-quezon.html

    (2) the lower end of the online asking price from Colonial Collectibles.com--https://www.colonialcollectables.com/product/philippines-proof-coin-set/

    (3) the higher end of the online asking price from an eBay fixed price listing--https://www.ebay.com/itm/325241230319?hash=item4bb9e353ef:g:cfsAAOSwONBitMJZ
