I was looking at the Coursera website for the first time. From what I've read online Coursera courses can be free.

However, how do I determine if a course is free, and if not, how do I determine the price?

I has a look at some courses on their site, but I don't see pricing info.

Ideally, I'd like to get a certificate at the end of any course. Thanks!

From their website

To get a [broken link removed] for a course, you will need to pay a fee. For some courses, paying the fee also gives you access to other course features, like graded assignments.

Course prices
Some courses on Coursera are offered for a one-time payment that lasts for 180 days. You can see how much a course costs on the course home page.

Other courses are part of [broken link removed], which means they are available through subscription payments. When you subscribe to courses in a Specialization, you pay a fee every month which gives you access to all courses in that Specialization.

Certificate courses cost $ 29 - $ 99 and take 4-6 weeks
Specialization courses $ 39 - $ 79 per month, and take 4-6 months
Degree courses cost $ 15,000 - $ 25,000 and take 1-3 years

Again have you not checked the site - I found this info on the "About" page

There is a free period where you can try out their system but you will not get a certificate at the end.
 
I'll have a look at that link now.

I was looking at Excel courses listed e.g.

/courses?_facet_changed_=true&languages=en&primaryLanguages=en&query=excel

the above should be tacked onto the end of the coursera web address. I can't post the full link as I don't have enough AAM posts yet.

When I went into individual courses I didn't see any pricing info.
 
I think you have to setup an account and then at the enrol stage, they will show the price
 
Certificates from the likes of Coursera are virtually worthless in the real world.
