This set has NO modal value. See explanation.

Explanation:

A mode (modal value) of a data set is the value which appears most often in the set. For example in a set:

#{1,1,2,2,2,2,3,4,5,6}#

the modal value would be #2# because it appears #4# times and other values appear less than #4# times.

In the given set all values appear the same number of times (once) so NO modal value is defined.
