Assuming the coin is circulated and has no mintmark, the 1881 Liberty Head Eagle has the highest mintage (3,877,220) of the series and the second-highest mintage of the entire denomination from 1795 to 1933. So this coin is about the most common of all $10 gold coins. For an accurate assessment of value the coin needs to be seen and graded. In general retail values for low grade coins, as of 7-1-11, are $850.00-$880.00, better grade are $900.00-$910.00 and coins showing almost no wear run from $920.00-$980.00. 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.
The going price for a 1881 $10 gold liberty head coin is about $600; but that can vary considerably depending on its condition.
It's worth exactly one dollar. 1881 is the year Garfield was President, while the coin itself was minted in 2011.
Well the answer is that its worth 410$ dollars i would know i have the exact coin
Retail value is likely $185.00-$225.00 but it depends on what the coin actually grades out at.
Your coin is almost certainly a modern Presidential Dollar coin. If you found it in change, it's only worth a dollar. To explain: Under the picture of James Garfield it has the words "In God We Trust 20th President 1881." However 1881 is not the date of the coin, it only shows the year of the president's term. If you look on the rim of the coin you can see the actual year of mintage, 2011. Sorry to disappoint you, but its not made of gold either! The shiny surface only looks like gold but is actually brass on top of copper. If it's uncirculated the coin is probably only worth $3-$8 but save it because these dollar coins are now discontinued and may be worth more someday!

It depends on which denomination coin you have. A $10 coin has more gold than a $5 coin.
Do you want to check those dates again? 1881 has nothing to do with President Adams. If you have a gold-colored coin that's 26 mm in diameter, the dates will be 1797-1801 and it's an ordinary circulation coin worth ... ba DING ... one dollar.
