Probably a Varsity or Continental. I dunno what they're going for in MO.

Need better pictures. Its all about the pictures, as they tell the story. You will need really good pictures to get full market value regardless.

+1, Looks like an Ashtabula crank and no lugs. These are not high dollar bikes. Around here they bring around $100 more or less if they are in ride ready condition with new tires, chain and bar tape. For a pristine example they might go a little more.

Around here, CL asking varies from $100 - $200. One can probably add $25 with original fenders. I'd guess with the lack of decals, fenders and bar tape closer to $100 asking, be prepared to accept $75 in my neighborhood.

Looks like they're asking $60 - $200 on St. Louis CL. I think you'll have to shoot for 60 if you want it gone quickly.

Original decals gone? That is a value killer around here.

No pics that I can see, if a schwinn varsity or continental that has a recent tune, decent tires that aren't dry rotted and good clean looking handlebar tape you should reasonably get 125-150. If the tires are dry rotted and the tape looks like crap hope for a sucker willing to pay 50.00 since the bike isn't worth much with current parts costs.
