From the barrel rollstamp, it appears to be a model 1894. The model marking should be on the top tang, behind the hammer. If there is a tang sight mounted there, you can remove the two screws and you will find the model rollstamped there. The model 1894 was produced from summer of 1894 to 1935, in various styles of rifles, and carbines, with many options. Calibers were .44-40, .38-40, 32-20, and .25-20. Early .25-20's were marked .25-20M (marlin) while later were regular .25-20, but the two cartridges interchange. Values of these early guns depend on the variation, condition, and special order features, so without knowing all these things, and estimate is not possible.

The model 20S was made from 1911 to 1916, and then again after WWI in 1922. Prices ranged from $11.50 in 1911 to $16.80 in 1916, and $23.50 in 1922. The model 20S was an improvement in strength over the original model 20 locking bolt system, to handle modern hi speed ammo. The original model 20 came out in 1906.
