Can anyone estimate the value of my Mountain Majesty Beginning of a Perfect Day III by Thomas Kinkade. It's 378/1400 G/P Canvas - Charter size 25.5x34 in a gold frame and in great condition. There are no other special attributes, eg. not signed.

I have found one that is the same size as yours but in a different frame listed on eBay and the seller is asking $2500 for the canvas. On this site they tell you a lot of details about the print and explain to you the average price, high and low prices. It appears the average price for this print is $849, the low is $175, and the high is $3000. Here is a link to the site so you can learn more about how you can determine the price of your print if you want to sell it. picclick.com/
There are just too many variables with the Thomas Kinkade paintings to even try to sort them out and find an exact match to your painting.
Every letter/number means something and completely changes the value as well as the popularity of the painting.
Most of the same name paintings on eBay (and other sites) is the S/N edition and there were 3950 of this type made - S/N stands for 'Standard Edition' and is generally considered of less value than your G/P.
Your painting is 378/1400 GP (Gallery Proof) so that means there were less paintings made and this generally increases the value.
The following is a link to an 'appraisal' made in 2012 and has no real value to you except if you read the comments you will see how complicated this identifying can be.

There are several similar paintings presently listed for sale on eBay and if you check some of them you'll see the differences but many seller do not really know how to describe their listings.

I would suggest you start with a free online appraisal so you will at least have a beginning point.
You will need several pictures of all numbers and markings as well as any paperwork you may have. Your location will also help.

Because you have a valuable piece, I would do auction/bid, with starting bid in the hundreds. The value is at least $1000 for this size. Also if local you could try a high end consignment shop.
