Don't no of the year but it's a black Raleigh Capri 410. Everything's original,tires and all. Tires are in great shape still. Twould small half-inch scratches. Any guesstimates?

These are heavy, lower end bikes from the mid 80s. If all original it typically needs to be fully overhauled. In my area this is maybe a $75 bike. May be worth a bit more in a hot market.

Bad example
As an aside, I have a Capri that I rebuilt from a bare frame. I put on some nice wheels (Nuovo Record hubs with Magic rims) and a batch of my preferred parts, and it actually is a pleasant bike to ride.
Good wheels can make a huge difference.
