The "W" you see is not the mintmark, it is instead the designer's initials. Rather, the mintmark (if any) is found on the reverse of the coin after the "E" in "ONE DIME". If your coin has no mintmark, or an "S" mintmark, it is a common coin that unless in really great condition, generally sells for about $3 or so. On the other hand, if you have a "D" mintmark, you have an exceedingly rare coin worth several hundred dollars even in the worst condition.

How much is a 1916 w mercury dime worth?

The mintmark is on the reverse of the coin and all Mercury Head dimes have the "W" on the front of the coin it's the designers initial, Adolph A. Weinman. 1916 is the first year of issue and it's very important to check the back of the coin for a mintmark, if it has one it can only be a "S" or "D", the "D" mintmark is the key-date of the series and the coins are very valuable. Take it to a coin dealer or collector for a better idea of value.
