Best Answer

To set things straight, Mercury dimes were only minted from 1916 to 1945. Barber dimes (named for the designer, not a hair cutter) were made from 1892 to 1916 and Seated Liberty dimes were made before that.

You need to know the coins' dates and mint marks to have a reasonable idea of their value. There are some price guides linked below.
