Any idea what kind of table this is and the age? This has passed through a few family members. I am trying to find out its origin. The only markings I see are on the underside. The number 1414 and then below that 15. I'm not sure where it was purchased into our family, but most likely in Michigan in the last 20 years.

Neat table. What do the screws look like? Barley twist leg tables were popular many times in history. It could be anywhere from the early 1900s to 1940s. Or a repro piece from 60s to when your family aquired it.
The wheels have a very 1940s vibe. The don't look, to me, original. I wonder if someone cut off a thick or more decorative foot to make it easier to move.
You will be best served by having a furniture dealer look at it, in person, so they can see and feel what I can't from a photo.
Furniture values are regional and are predicted on original vs altered condition.
They can confirm the wood also. Top looks like oak, but legs don't.
Barley twist is popular in many places! That is a plus! Do you have chairs that match?

After looking at close up pictures, I'm also of the opinion this may be a 'put-together' table. The wheels are a mystery.
It would be nice if there was a local antique shop nearby that might could give you information but that is not always the case and not too many people are very interested in doing things like that for free.
You might try placing it on this site and see what they can tell you. You will need several good pictures - full table, top, edges, legs, underneath (several to show the workmanship) and measurements.
You will need to state any history and also your location.
I think they can help you and it is free.
