Best Answer

That would be mint mark rather than "marks" because a coin can only be minted in one Mint. The mint mark position on all Mercury dimes is the same, next to the E in the word ONE on the back.

Blank = Philadelphia

D = Denver

S = San Francisco

1942 mercury dime mint mark?

Not sure what you are asking. If you want to know where the mint mark is found, it's on the back of the coin to the right of the word One in "One Dime". Coins without mint marks were made in Philadelphia; D = Denver, S = San Francisco. If you want to know its value, check out a guide such as http://www.numismedia.com/fmv/prices/mrcdim/pricesgd.shtml

What is the value of a 1942 W Mercury head dime?

That's not a mint mark. It's the monogram of the designer A.A. Weinmann. The West Point Mint did not open until the 1980s and only strikes commemorative coins and cents. Mercury dimes had their mint mark in the space to the right of the word ONE on the dime's back. For a 1942 dime it will either be blank (Phila.) or have a small "S" for San Francisco, or a "D" for Denver.
