The value of an 1881 $5 gold coin with an upside-down eagle can vary significantly based on its condition, rarity, and collector interest. Generally, if the coin is in good condition and the error is recognized, it could be worth more than the standard market price for the coin, which typically ranges from $400 to $600. However, if the upside-down eagle is a notable error, it might attract a premium from collectors. To get an accurate valuation, it's best to consult a numismatic expert or a reputable coin dealer.
All 1967 US quarter dollars have the eagle upside down.
Upside down is relative to which way you flip the coin. If flipping from top to bottom, the eagle should be upright. If flipping from side to side, the eagle should be upside-down. If the eagle is truly upside down from the way it should be, AND the coin has not been altered, then it could be worth a couple of hundred dollars.

First verify that the back side really is struck upside-down. Hold the coin with Kennedy's face upright. Your fingers should be holding the coin on the right & left sides -- NOT at the top & bottom. Now when you flip the coin over, the Kennedy head becomes upside-down (on the side away from you), and the eagle should be right-side-up facing you. This is known as a "coin turn". If you were holding the coin at the top & bottom when you flip it, the Kennedy head would remain right side up (on the back side), and the eagle would (normally) be upside-down facing you. This is called a "medal turn". If you did the above "coin turn", and the eagle is now upside-down, then you have a rare rotated die error -- perhaps worth hundreds of dollars. If you did the "coin turn" and the eagle is now right-side-up, you have a normal coin.

July 25, 2009 In 1881 the Philadelphia mint struck 2,260 Double Eagle [$20 gold] coins. This coin in any condition is scarce. Also in 1881, the San Francisco mint struck 727,000 examples of this coin. To identify which coin you may have, the mint mark location is on the reverse [tails] side of the coin beneath the eagle. The letter "S" indicates the coin was struck at the San Francisco mint. If there is no mint mark letter below the eagle then the coin was minted at Philadelphia and is represented in this estimate as 1881-P . The values for these 2 coins are shown in the chart below.
