Just some quick info I found, you may already know.  In 2003 one just like this had an auction estimate at $200-$300 USD.  Last year, one just like it was auctioned in Germany with a reserve of 400 Euro ($519 presently), meaning it wouldn't be sold unless it reached that mark. 

I don't know actual sales, but a loose auction estimate based on the above information would be $300-$600. I hope this helps, I found the information quickly just by doing an image search of the artist which yielded this piece several times.

An identical plaque came up for auction and failed to meet the low estimate, I believe it sold for $125-150 USD. Pieces like this, furniture, lamps etc. vary greatly due to who is in the auction crowd at any given event and prices are all over the board as such.
