I'm sitting here in my chair facing straight, parallel with the wall next to me, and if I strain my eyes to look to the extreme left or right (without moving my head)... this is what I get (approximately). Although it gives me a headache to put that kind of strain on my optic muscles. Regular peripheral vision (eyes straight forward) seems to be 180°.

Answer: It varies from person to person. It's between 180 and 200 on most people. Some people have crazy narrow and crazy wide fields.
 
And the the extremes, you don't have a perception of what's there. Hell, half the time the object wouldn't be noticed if it/your eye/your head weren't moving.
