Judging by the label, your doll is made by Seymour Mann's. Without knowing the size of the doll, it is quite difficult to accurately determine its value, but basically the price of a doll like yours varies depending on the condition, the presence of a box, papers and how quickly you want to sell it: from $10 to $40 https: //www.ebay.com/itm/373632214076, www.etsy.com/.../seymour-mann-connoisseur-collection, www.etsy.com/.../seymour-mann-connoisseur-collection...
If your doll does not have a box and is damaged, then the price will be low.
You can see the price comparison here by adding your doll size to filters www.ebay.com/.../i.html?_from=R40&_nkw=seymour+mann...

There are many such dolls for sale, but I see that they are for sale.
Seymour Mann Connoisseur Collection Dolls recently sold for $20-27 (with boxes) www.ebay.com/.../373686950604?hash=item57017a5acc..., www.ebay.com/.../3832839596?hash=item593d811749:g...

If you have a box, then the year is written in Roman numerals on it (in front), for example MCMXCV - 1995.
Also look at what is written on the back of the neck, if your doll belongs to a limited edition, then its number will be written there and how many dolls were in the edition.
Some Seymour Mann's dolls have a name tag.

The market has been flooded with all brands of dolls for several years and will probably remain this way for many years in the future.
It's sad to see such lovely dolls that so many people purchased years ago thinking they would increase in value and now it is difficult to sell these dolls for even $25.

Having a name for your Seymour Mann doll would be nice but I really doubt that a name would increase her value or even make a quicker sale.
Your doll could be valued at $20-$35 but it may take months/years to make a sale. Some dolls presently listed for sale at low prices have been listed for 2 or more years and, they may never sell.

I know this is discouraging but it seems to be the pattern so if you list your doll please ask a lower price - $25 plus shipping and take offers. If you receive no offers, you may have to lower the price and wait again.
Hopefully you will be lucky and get a quick sale.

You can check out eBay's sold listing so you can see the prices people are actually paying for similar dolls. Always compare dolls of the same size as size is important.

Undress the doll and look for identifying marks on the back of the neck, the back, the chest, the feet and even the scalp.

My guess is that it is a mass-produced doll that is not worth much.

Your doll has an interesting dress. I found a similar doll Seymour Mann Doll With Stand - Joyce, but she has a red dress www.ebay.com/.../133018002923. She has a small discolored spot on lip. Price $ 18.99. If your doll is in perfect condition, then the price is $ 25-30.
