The price will depend a lot upon size, shape, quality, color, and banding, cut or uncut. Good, brightly colored, banded Lakers can bring a pretty penny if you can find a collector that really wants it. Bland, dull colors and poor banding, little contrast = meh, it's just an agate. Consult a local rockshop or mineral club to see what it's worth.
This would depend upon a number of factors. Massive, or crystalline? Colorless, or colorful? Clear or opaque? Fractured or flawless? From the Swiss Alps, or from Arkansas? A buck a pound will get you good tumbling grade agate, but a well crystallized rose quartz specimen, or top grade rutilated quartz, or a nice Swiss smoky quartz crystal crowned with pink fluorite crystals... you can add two to four zeroes.
The value of an agate stone can vary widely depending on factors such as size, quality, color, and clarity. Generally, smaller agate stones can range from a few dollars to a few hundred dollars, while larger, higher-quality specimens can be worth thousands of dollars. It's best to have an expert appraiser evaluate the specific agate stone to determine its true value.

Agate a quartz stone characterized by visible bands and bright colors. There several varieties of agate, many of which are named according to color or other distinguishing characteristic (i.e. Green Agate, Banded agate, Blue Lace Agate) and/or the location in which it is found (e.g. Oregon Snakeskin Agate, Mexican Lace Agate, Botswana Agate). While it was highly prized in ancient times and throughout history, agate is not considered a precious or rare stone. In raw form, small pieces of agate are generally very inexpensive.
