The snap coupler hurts the relative value, the full time hydraulics helps it. As a guess I would say somewhere in the $3500 to $4000 range. Put the 3PTH on it and you can add another $1000 to it.
As reference I purchased a really nice IV at auction for $4000. Not a perfect tractor, but good tires and new paint. I think I got it cheap, a year earlier I had bid one up to $5500 and didn't get it. I also have a IV that I inherited from my FIL, it's a fair tractor with a 500 loader that would be about the same as the one you have. Not for sale, but I have it valued at about $5000 with the endloader.

John, is right on with his prices. I got one this spring that I thought was a steal, but I now have rebuilt generator, new guages, rebuilt seat, fixing fuel gauge, new used tires and rims, and alot of other incidentals to put into it. Not complaining, as I paid $1750 for it, and I knew I couldn't lose. I would take her for a spin, and make sure you look over all the small things, gauges, seat, ram leakages, any other leaks, wiring system. Rims/tires especially the rear ones can affect the price greatly. Oh, mine was snap coupler also, which doesn't bother me as everything i have is snap coupler.

Make sure she doesn't pop out of gear. Third is the most suspect.
