Notes: 1916 was the 1st year that the Mercury (actually named the Winged Liberty) dimes were minted. These beautiful dimes are 90% silver. If a mint mark was placed it would be on the reverse, near the word "one" but you wont find one on this coin as it was minted in Philadelphia. Fully struck versions of this coin worth more.

How much is a 1916 Mercury Dime worth?
In Average Circulated (AC) condition it's worth around $3.00, one in certified mint state (MS+) condition could bring as much as $195 at auction. This price does not reference any standard coin grading scale. So when we say Average Circulated, we mean in a similar condition to other coins circulated in 1916, and mint state meaning it is certified MS+ by one of the top coin grading companies. *** [?].
