@shauna9255,
No, it depends on a great many things, condition, age, availability etc.

When I was on holiday in Crete bits of pottery dating from the Roman Empire could be found on the beach because they’re so common. The clay pot was the tin can of its day.

When dealing with art and antiquities you have to be careful, the people who know about such things tend to guard their knowledge jealously.

There are websites you can join that give the latest prices such things went at auction, but the cost is prohibitive, we’re talking about thousands of dollars, not hundreds, and it’s only worth it if you’re in the trade, not just someone with one item.

You could have a look on eBay and see if something similar has sold there, or you could just google it and see where that takes you.
