the best thing to do is to go to a art dealer or a art musuem and have it appraised.

about $3.99 probably
Unless Monet actually made the print like some Rembrandt's it's not worth much. If it's a numbered print from the museum or something it might be worth a little more but still who cares because it was probably printed after his death
appraisals are expensive if it is a print by the museum that is not numbered especially with the type at the bottom it is not worth very much. But if you like it put it in a frame where as the text is covered and almost everyone can't tell the difference.

The print (or poster) you own is probably worth exactly what someone paid for it new - around $25.
Art prints/posters like these are generally printed in the thousands - the price of a print depends on the number of prints made from that plate.
If it is an exceptional reproduction done by a museum or exclusive printing house with 2 numbers on it such as 10/500 (written in pencil under the image) then it is a limited edition of prints (in this case, the tenth out of five hundred prints made.) This would give the print more value, perhaps up to $250.
The resale value of prints is not much more than the original cost these days - the market is flooded with them and they are not as desirable as they used to be.
Frame it, hang it and enjoy it.
