1881 is one of the more reasonably-priced dates for a US 3¢ piece. Numismedia lists the following approximate retail values as of 01/2011:

Very worn condition - $15

Moderately worn - $20

Slightly worn - $26

Almost no wear - $64

Uncirculated - $120 to $5,100 depending on quality

This odd denomination was struck to simplify buying postage, when the price of a first-class stamp was 3 cents.

DISCLAIMER: The retail values quoted are the best available as of the date shown, but may vary significantly due to market fluctuations. Also the wholesale (buying) price of a coin will be less than the selling (retail) price. A reputable coin dealer will be able to give a more accurate valuation based on inspection of the coin.
