Antique thimbles are worth more than Franklin Mint ones. I would look on eBay and see what thimbles have actually sold for.
If you choose to sell your thimbles in lots of 10-91 pieces you may only receive $1-$3 each and they may not sell very quickly.
Some sellers leave items like this listed until they sell which means they may be listed for sale for months to years and may never sell.
If you wish to check out each thimble you can do research on eBay, Etsy, Ruby Lane to see what sellers may be asking for the same thimble.
Research is very time consuming but it is the only way to find out what people are asking for these thimbles.
Asking prices do not really reflect value as only a sold item can show what someone is willing to pay for the same item.
Asking prices can help with deciding if you wish to sell individual pieces or sell in a lot.
Here are some links to get you started on your research.
You can place a watch on any eBay item to see if it sells.
