There is one listed by Abe that is green cloth that says circa 1900 and is listed for $16.
Books of age need to match the publisher, illustrator, the color and type of material on the cover for starters.
Silas Marner was a very famous novel and there have been thousands of them published. Probably only a true first edition or a special edition ie bound in leather might have real value.
One of the best sources for books is [URL removed] but you have to read and it is tedious. Often the first few may be only a few dollars or cents so you need to match publisher date edition etc. and condition.
I also think that a check with Amazon is always a good place to start.

George Eliot’s Silas Marner was first published in the 1890s.
This volume was published (confirmed) as a M.A. Donohue Complete Edition.
If this book contain(ed) the following [URL removed] Silas Marner, The lifted veil, Brother Jacob, and Scenes of clerical life.
This is considered the new edition and published in the first half of the 1900s. At the time, it was probably released in a number of different quality bindings.
Our research is substantiated by the same sources as the contributors above. Other helpful information would be table of contents, number of pages, b/w or/+ color pics and any contributors to the book (i.e. artists, printing house).

Is this what you might be looking for? Not sure, Silas [URL removed] The Weaver of Raveloe is a dramatic novel by George Eliot. Her third novel, it was first published in 1861. An outwardly simple tale of a reclusive weaver, in its strong realism it represents one of Eliot’s most sophisticated treatments of her attitude to religion.

Thank you TobysArtandBooks, Was having trouble finding enough points to match this one up. Really dislike not having some kind of date on a book, and this one had me a bit stumped.
