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-$8 but save it because these dollar coins are now discontinued and may be worth more someday!
It's worth exactly one dollar. 1881 is the year Garfield was President, while the coin itself was minted in 2011.
The 1881 gold dollar weighs 1.7 grams and contains 90% gold. If the coin is a little bigger than a quarter with an image of James Garfield on one side and the Statue of Liberty on the other, then it's a modern Presidential dollar and contains no gold.
It's worth exactly one dollar (and it's made of brass, not gold).
Well the answer is that its worth 410$ dollars i would know i have the exact coin
The value of an 1881 U.S. gold dollar, specifically a $10 coin (often referred to as a "ten dollar gold piece"), can vary significantly based on its condition, rarity, and market demand. Generally, these coins are worth at least their gold content value, which fluctuates with gold prices, but in good condition, they can be valued between $800 to $1,500 or more. For an accurate appraisal, it's best to consult a professional coin dealer or appraiser.
