They usually sell in the $200 range, but it depends on the market at that particular time.
Is this the exact style you are selling: bellingham.craigslist.org/
This person (if it is not you) is asking $150 on Craig's list. You could watch it and see if it sells. Personally I think that is too high...but if that person is in a high demand area, it is possible someone will pay that much.
Where I am, most any kind of chest goes for $50-75, sometimes even less if there is the least amount of damage or wear or worse if the item has a smell to it (if it has a smell to it you will get next to nothing).
There are none that look exactly like yours on eBay at the moment. Ebay is my go to for valuing items as it tells you (WHEN YOU USE SOLD AUCTIONS ONLY) what people pay for items in today's market. Never us asking prices as sellers always think their items are worth lots of money, but a payer handing over the cash will tell you the true value--what they pay!
Generally the market for chests is low as they are big and bulky and there are a lot of them out there. Unless the the chest is rare or something really unusual, they are challenge to sell online and best left to a local sale--like Facebook marketplace or Craig's list.
I suggest finding one identical to yours when it is on eBay and watch it to see what it sells for and how long it takes to give you an idea of what you will be up against in selling yours and valuing yours.
