Black Copper Marans

Is $40 for a pair a good price in 2019 for those birds?

It rather depends on the age and quality of the birds, and your area. People in Retiredmoney, Florida can sell birds for more than someone in Ruralsville, Wisconsin can.

Sounds like you already know what the birds are worth, then.

Good quality black copper Marans (dark eggs, proper form) are very rare. Hatchery quality copper Marans are only nominally rare.
