I think the value of your coffee table is approximately $170 to $270, but the price depends on where you sell it.
Places to sell online:
eBay, Etsy, GoAntiques.com, 1stDibs, Heritage Auctions, Rubylane.com. There are also Facebook Marketplace and Craigslist.com.

Mersman produced good solid furniture but it was never rated as 'high end' and this lower value still continues today.
Some people will purchase Mersman because it may have been in their early family memories and may like having it in their homes.

Usually, buyers will pay more money for better-known high-end brands, even if the style is similar.

Most sellers list Mersman furniture as Mid-Century, as there is no solid record of dates their furniture was produced.
Most of the Mersman furniture like this table was produced from 1940s - 1960s.

It is difficult to place a value on your table, as most people would say whatever price you paid is the current value in your area.
Furniture is most often listed for sale as local pick-up only, as shipping can be very expensive.

I'm not sure if you are interested in selling or if you just want to know if you got a good buy.
If you plan to use it in your home, then whatever you paid is probably a good deal/buy for you.
If you wish to sell then I would suggest doing a good clean-up, take good pictures, and list it for $250-$400; use consider all offers, local pick up only.

Facebook marketplace, Craigslist, any local sale sites and keep it listed for several weeks/months.
If you do not receive any offers, then you may have to reduce the price and wait again.

Example:
This same table as yours - #6964 - was listed on eBay at $155.
The listing was ended by the seller - unsold - after being for sale on eBay for over 2 years.
This is not unusual.

Your table is from mid 20th century.
It is made in Hepplewhite style.
Hepplewhite is characterized by tapered legs and the use of contrasting veneers and inlay. It is named after British designer and cabinetmaker George Hepplewhite.
