To add to Kathy's comments,
That is commonly called a "stripper", it is a wood core with re-inforcing cloth (usually fiberglass) bonded to both the outside and inside. In the old days, (60-70s) the cloth was bonded with polyester resin, now days it's usually epoxy resin. In general, the strength of the canoe is in the resin/cloth layers, the wood is just a seperating core (web).
100's or maybe even 1,000's are built each year by homebuilders, and there are many sources of plans/designs to build.
The "granddaddy' of info and plans is Ted Moore and his canoecraft book and Bearmountain web site. He offers a line of Chestnut canoe designs.
Which brings me to your's, without a better description, ie, dimensions, I would SWAG your's to be one of the designs offered by Bearmontain, ie, a Chestnut, in part because they have offered designs for so many years and in part because it looks "Chestnut". (even to the shape of the deck) But it is a SWAG.
As to value, that would depend mostly on condition.
If by "coating is peeling only slightly" you mean that the fiberglass is starting to lift or unbond from the wood core, that's bad.
Also, why is it so blochy? usually white areas are seperated areas, again, not good.
IF the glass is seperating, it's not worth much, maybe 0-$100,
but if the glass is still good, then it would be worth bit more, $100-$500?
A lot depends on the buyer and location. (See the article Kathy references.)
But in general, strippers IMV don't hold their value very well, in part because just about anybody can build one and often those who do want one, want to build their own.
With that said, a couple years ago, I sold 2 BW tripper canoes that were in very nice condition, 1 had 1 trip, the other 2 trips, both just had a few light scratches on the bottom. I got $1000 for each, and considered myself very lucky to get that. They were basically new and the price didn't cover the cost of making them.
