Look on the back of the coin near the arrowheads to see if there's a small mint mark letter. It may be blank, or there may be a D or S.

Numismedia lists the following approximate retail values as of 03/2010:

No mint mark (Philadelphia):

Very worn condition - $324

Moderately worn - $348

Slightly worn - $372

Almost no wear - $415

Uncirculated - $552 to $84,380 depending on quality

"D" mint mark (Denver):

Very worn condition - $324

Moderately worn - $348

Slightly worn - $372

Almost no wear - $419

Uncirculated - $588 to $49,280

"S" mint mark (San Francisco):

Very worn condition - $324

Moderately worn - $348

Slightly worn - $372

Almost no wear - $628

Uncirculated - $1,470 to $87,080

Indian Head design $2.50 and $5.00 gold pieces are unusual because they have what care called incuse designs; that is, instead of being raised above the rest of the coin's surface the images and lettering are below the coin's surface.
