The 1860 Liberty Head Eagle is a higher mintage date of the series. For an accurate assessment of value the coin needs to be seen and graded. Assuming the coin is circulated, most show heavy wear. In general retail values for low grade coins are $740.00-$800.00, better grade are $860.00-$920.00 and coins showing almost no wear run from $1,380.00-$3,750.00.

What cost $1000 in 1860 would cost $23594.24 in 2009.

The 'simple' answer is: $ 140 - 145. You would today pay around $ 140 for a fixed package of basic commodities that would have cost you $5 back then. In reality, the answer is much more complex, depending on what you want to compare. For instance, you can also compare the value of $5 to the total dollar value of the US's economic output. In order to possess the same 'percentage' of this national output as you had then with your $5 dollar, that amount would now be worth over $ 18,000. The reason: the enormous growth of the US's economy since 1860.
