When trying to place a value, vintage consoles cannot be compared to other styles/models as each model has its own value and each is very different in many numerous ways.

I did not find a console like yours and the numbers provided are not numbers this brand uses to identify their systems.
www.radiomuseum.org/dsp_hersteller_detail.cfm?company_id...
sdb.jukebox-world.de/index.php?action=showmodels&id=105
www.radiomuseum.org/.../capehart_deluxe_radio_phonographs_fo_the_1930s_and_1940s...

It's possible there are other numbers on the back or inside the cabinet that may help identify your console.
You do not provide any information as to the condition of your set.
Condition of the cabinet?
Does the record player work?
How does it sound? Are speakers in good shape?
Are there other components besides the record player?
Radio? Tape player?

It is difficult to sell a console as so many people just do not have the room necessary for a large cabinet. It is still a small section of people who are into the record scene as most are now using CDs and records have no place in their lives.

This is a very heavy item, which means it will have to be listed as 'local pick up only'. Do you know of anyone in your area that has a vintage console (and uses it)?
Your area will determine the final value of your console.
You can list it for sale - starting at a higher price - maybe $4-500 with local pick up only and see if you receive any offers.
Post it on sites like Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace, etc and if no offers after a few weeks then lower the price and wait again.

I think you have Capehart record player from 1970s like this similar looking model:

instappraisal.com/.../capehart-stereo

Is your console in working condition?

I found another similar looking model: 

Capehart Solid State AM FM tuner, 8 track player and record player console unit 

www.worthpoint.com/.../capehart-solid-state-record-player...

"The tuner and 8 track function as they should, however the record player needs some attention and doesn't work"

You can start free trial to see what it's worth.
