What you have here is an Armand Marseille doll.  She is most commonly called the Dolly Face Doll, circa 1890.  Armand Marseille was the most prolific Doll Manufacturer is Germany for many years.  The onset of ebay has driven the price of these dolls down a great deal.  Although your doll being just 12" is called a cabinet doll and more sought after.  If there are no broken parts to her limbs and no hair line cracks or chips to her head, her value in today's market is around $125.00+
