Do you have a good idea on what it is worth? What is it?
If you want it sold for maximum value with minimum stress, post it on a local live consignment sale that runs online auctions at the same time. Be willing to stand up for it and represent it. You NEED to stand up and represent it at the sale and be willing to take calls to represent it before the sale as well because those type of sales are well known as dumping grounds for problem machines. If it is a good tractor with a good family history, it will sell as well as it can sell. This way, you will not have to put up with too much crap from the morons that are trying to get a steal of a deal from a private listing. Obviously, you will be paying commission to the auctioneer, but he surely should be doing his best to get you more than you could get if you did not use him.
With the way sales and the internet works, timing does not seem to be as important as it used to be. That would be less true if the farm economy was not in the crapper right now. If it was good, end of year would be best because farmers would be flush with cash and looking to spend before year end for taxes. That will not come into play this year. A good tractor will sell well just about any time of year. That said, I might be a little less enthusiastic about listing it until March. January and February might be a little slow.

Today's Featured Article - Oil Bath Air Filters - by Chris Pratt. Some of us grew up thinking that an air filter was a paper thing that allowed air to pass while trapping dirt particles of a particles of a certain size. What a surprise to open up your first old tractor's air filter case and find a can that appears to be filled with the scrap metal swept from around a machine shop metal lathe. To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
