It depends on the age of the pot, its condition, who made it and how it was made. Pueblo pottery has been made for thousands of years and early Anasazi pottery is quite rare in good condition. Contemporary pueblo pottery is made in two ways: the traditional method which is hand-coiled (no potter's wheel) and fired in an outdoor pit (no kiln); and the non-traditional method which can use a wheel and/or a kiln.
Generally speaking the traditional works are more valuable due to the extreme difficulty of building a pot without the use of a wheel and firing outdoors where a large percentage of pots do not survive the firing process. Of course pottery with no chips, scratches or other blemishes is more valuable than those which have condition issues. Finally, the value of contemporary pottery depends a great deal on the reputation and skill of the artist who made it, just as in any other art form. Small pots made for sale in souvenir shops sell for a few dollars apiece while pots by some of the current masters sell for thousands and sometimes tens of thousands of dollars.

Yes, unlike the true Plains tribes further east, the Shoshone did produce pottery, up to about 1850.
