There's no such coin. Wheat cents were made from 1909 to 1958. If your coin has an Indian head design, it's an Indian head cent, not a wheat cent.
The value of a 1881 Indian head penny depends on the condition. As of 2014, one in good condition is worth $4.00, extremely fine condition is worth $20.00, and an uncirculated penny is worth approximately $50.00.
The 1881 Indian Head cent is a common date coin of the series. Most coins show very heavy wear and have values of $1.00-$5.00 depending on the grade of the coin. NOTE: The reverse shows a Oak (not wheat) Wreath and Shield.

"In Perfect Condition" is a relative term -- with different meanings for different people. There is a standard grading scale used for coins -- called the Sheldon Scale -- that rates coins numerically from 1 to 70, with 70 being "perfect". A "perfect" coin, from before the 1960's, is pretty much unheard of. You need to get your coin professionally graded to get an accurate estimate of its value. "Perfect" in your eyes may turn out to be only extra fine (grade 40) or about uncirculated (grade 50) to a professionally trained grader -- a BIG difference in value. An extra fine Indian head cent -- one that has sharp details, but visible wear spots -- for an 1881 is worth about $12.00 An about uncirculated coin will have complete details with nice mint luster and only the lightest evidence of rub on only the highest points of the design -- an 1881 is worth about $16.00 A truly uncirculated coin will show no evidence of wear -- all design details will be sharp & complete with no softness whatsoever, it will have flashy mint luster with no breaks, and attractive natural color -- an 1881 will be worth $30-$50 or more, depending on color and contact marks. If your coin has been cleaned or altered in any way, its value will drop severely. A nice uncirculated 1881 coin that was worth about $50 but has been cleaned will now be worth only a couple dollars. Also, your coin isn't a "wheat penny", it's just an Indian head cent. Wheat pennies were made from 1909 to 1958 and have the familiar picture of Abraham Lincoln on the front side.

Assuming the coin is circulated, the 1881 Indian Head cent is fairly common. For an accurate assessment of value the coin needs to be seen and graded. Most coins show heavy wear. In general retail values for low grade coins are $3.00-$6.00, better grade are $8.00-$17.50 and coins showing almost no wear run from $28.00-$42.00. Values are a market average and only for coins in collectible condition, coins that are bent, corroded, scratched, used as jewelery or have been cleaned have far less value if any to a collector or dealer
1881 Indian Head cents are not rare. Values depend entirely on the grade and condition of the coin. Most Indian Head cents of this date show very heavy wear and are in the $1.00-$3.00 price range. Take it to a coin dealer for a better idea of value.
