For an accurate assessment of value the coin needs to be seen and graded. Two types exist for this coin, a large letter and a small letter and the values are a little different. Take it to a coin dealer.

Not "eagle head" - it shows the entire eagle so these are known as Flying Eagle cents. See the Related Question for more.
For 1857 they were called Flying Eagle cents and are valued from $25 to $25,000 depending upon the condition of the coin.
There is no such coin. Large cents were made from 1793 to 1857. Flying eagle cents were made from 1856 to 1858. Indian Head cents were made from 1859 to 1909. Wheat-back Lincoln cents were made from 1909 to 1958. Lincoln Memorial cents were made from 1959 to 2008. Lincoln Bicentennial cents were made in 2009.

Do you mean an "1858" Flying Eagle Penny? If so, there are two versions, one with large letters, the other with small letters. Large Letter F.E. pennys run from $27.00 for a grade of G-4 to $24,500 for a Proof MS-65 grade. Small Letter F.E. pennys cost $26.00 for a G-4 to $30,000 for a Proof MS-65.

Theoretically yes. The US had changed to "small cents" in 1857, when the flying eagle penny was introduced. Before that pennies were much bigger - about the size of a quarter, and thick. Starting with the 1857 flying eagle cent the pennies have been the same size since. Many Civil War tokens were made in the same size, some by grinding smooth a penny and engraving something patriotic on it. They are often called victory tokens. The flying eagle pennies were only made for three years, and were replaced by Indian Head pennies, which were made through 1908, when the Lincoln penny was introduced.
Check that coin again. Canada didn't get its own coinage until 1858.
"double eagle penny" is kind of an oxymoron. A double eagle coin has a face value of $20. However, a gold coin is probably worth considerably more than face value.
