the date is in roman numerals :

mdccclxxxi

1000+500+100+100+100+50+10+10+10+1 = 1881

Edit: corrected per @rogerRamjet

oriole is correct about it being a Roman numeral and got the correct result but left out one Roman digit in the explanation.

mdccclxxxi = 1000+500+100+100+100+50+10+10+10+1 = 1881

Oops, @roger is correct. I should not be doing this so late in the evening.
