I know the R2-D2 and Mickey blue center pin is reasonably hard to find. I have one for my collection and I love it, but I collect SWs droids and Mickey Mouse.
In my experience, Star Wars in general is surprising not popular with pin traders. Star Wars pins can be popular with the general public in the parks, but these are not pin hunters, mostly tourists buying a souvenier. Specific Star Wars pins do gain popularity.
The framed set is Limited to 50. The center pin is LE 6000 (per pinpics and pinandpop). I found about half of the other pins on pinpics and all but 1 on pinandpop by searching "star wars weekends 2001". Pinandpop says the non-center pins are LE 2001.
I don't do $$ values, so no idea what it it worth. Maybe someone else will be more familiar and have a better $$ answer. If this is the only one on eBay try starting high and if it doesn't sell lower the price.

searched eBay and haven't found any framed sets for sale, but the complete set of pins has some listings for around $120, though none have sold.
I did some research:
There's a post from 2019 on the "RebelScum" forums with some info on these framed sets:
Hake's had an auction in 2011 for the 2008 set (LE 100) that ended at $287.50 (≈$417, inflation-adjusted):
at LE50, they're probably very rare, but since no comps exist, i'm not sure what it'd value at. I'd think starting bidding on eBay between $800-1000 isn't unreasonable, and you can always take offers or lower the starting bid over time to find the right price & buyer.
