The Marlin Model 81 rifle was produced from 1938 until 1953, making it between 70 and 85 years old, depending on the specific year of manufacture. The J.C. Higgins Model 103.13, which is a rebranded version of the Marlin Model 81, was produced around the same time, primarily in the late 1940s to early 1950s. Therefore, both models are generally in the range of 70 to 85 years old.
Be Careful! Winchester did not make a Model 81.Remington made a model 81 Woodmaster in 30 Rem.cartridge.This is different than the 30-30 cartridge in the fact that the 30 Rem was a rimless cartridge and the 30-30 Win cartridge was a rimmed cartridge.They both headspace differently.

Marlin made the Model 81 for many years. What markings are on the 'gold coin?' sales@countrygunsmith.net
Of the 20,580 Model 55 Rifles that were manufactured, appoximately 81% (or 16670) were Take Downs. The Solid Frame Model 55 is the rarest Winchester model configuration ever made. If you can provide me with the serial number and caliber, I can tell you whne it was made, and the overall statistical numbers.

Your Model 81 was halted in the year 2003.I would surmise that Marlin had a new model in the works at the time of the model 81 demise.
In short- you may not be able to. Some version of the Model 81 was made from 1937-1980. Model 81s made prior to 1968 will not have serial numbers (not required by law until 1968). Without a serial number, the date of manufacture cannot be accurately determined. Sorry-
