This depends solely on the cows genetics, and the price of dairy cattle in your area. Mature milking Holsteins can range from $3,000 (or less) up to even $100,000 for an excellent cow that excels in production and progeny (gives birth to calves that are also great producers).
The scientific name for a Holstein dairy cow would be Bos primigenius taurus.

In India, a person can expect to pay between 35,000 and 40,000 Rupees for a Holstein cow. The price you pay will be determined by the heritage of the animal, usual milk output, and other factors.
The Holstein cow originated in the Netherlands. They are known for their distinctive black and white markings and are one of the most common dairy breeds worldwide.
On June 4th 1920, Gustuv Pabst of Dousman, Wisconsin paid $30,000 for Holstein cow at the Minnesota-Friesian sale. The holstein cow was pruchased from Fred Pabst of Oconomowoc, Wisconsin. The previous record was $18,400. More recently a Holstein named Allendairy Glamorous Ivy was the very first holstein to sell for over one million dollars.
It will depend on where you get a holstein and what they will be used for. If you just go to the sales barn or auction to buy a calf to raise, it could cost about 100 to 600 dollars. If you buy a cow, they could be anywhere from 600-2000 dollars, maybe more or less. I have always bought calves from sales barns or dairy farms. If you are going to show it, the cow will probably be worth more than if you are buying it for milk or meat.
It all depends on what stage of life you buy it. There are stages in the life of a holstein. Usually the price on a heifer is close to $100 and the price for an older cow would be around $50. It depends on whether you are looking for meat or a milker.
