The flower head dies and shrivvels and the seeds are inside. Just pick the dead flower head and store in a paper bag (or something similar). African marigold seeds look exactly like orginary marigold seeds, so label them. Tagetes are similar, but smaller. Pot marigolds (or calendula) seeds are completely different.
