Pirate (pi179) is a common Pirates minifigure, averaging $3.78 on BrickLink. At this price point it's usually not worth listing individually. Bundle it with other Pirates figures or include it in a themed minifig lot to move it. The value is in volume, not the single sale.
The LEGO Pirate (pi179) is worth $3.78 used and $4.82 new/sealed on average, based on BrickLink sales data from the last 6 months. Prices range from $3.04 to $4.42 depending on condition. Completeness (all accessories included) and print condition are the biggest factors affecting price.

Look for the BrickLink ID pi179. It's the definitive identifier for this figure. Pirate is made up of 4 parts (a standard minifigure assembly). The parts breakdown on this page shows each component with colors. If you have a loose figure and aren't sure what it is, the brick'em scanner can identify it from a photo in a few seconds.
At this price point, the most efficient approach is to bundle it with other Pirates minifigures in a lot rather than listing individually. On BrickLink, you can list it as part of a themed minifig bundle. On eBay or Mercari, a "LEGO Pirates Minifigure Lot" listing with 5-10 figures will move faster and earn more than individual sales.
