I'm afraid thimbles are a thing of the past and will probably remain in that category as not very many of the middle or younger age groups are into anything 'sewing' related.
There are thimble collectable groups but these people are only interested in very rare items and yours does not seem to fall in that category.
I've seem a few listed for sale and the asking prices are between $5-$8. Yours is in a box and these seem to be about $2 more than the same thimble on a card backing.

I like them but I feel that I am in a minority where thimbles are found.

There is one online not as nice as the one that you have. This on also in pewter with Paul Revere or horseman. This is a asking price that is online - www.ebay.com/.../323321384

I am a bit surprised to find out how little people are asking for these thimbles. For most of them the asking price range between $4-8 only. I did not find the exact thimble that you are showing us here but there are a few that are roughly the same size as yours and people are not asking more than the price I have stated.

I have seen these sell from $4-$10. Nice thing is they are super easy to ship! Just pack well so the package doesn't get damaged.
