Don't feel alone because you aren't the only one with a very large dime.
A friend of mine brought a 1916 Barber/Liberty Head Dime to me, which is the size of a silver dollar!
It is an exact replica of the standard size dime and as far as I can tell, it is composed of the same minerals.
Unfortunately, after hours and hours of searching the internet, there is no evidence which supports that the dime was ever an actual US Minted Coin, nor were any over sized or "Large" dimes minted by the US Treasury in 1916 for circulation, collectors items, or any other purpose.
It is my opinion that my friend's dime and probably your dime as well, were manufactured as a novelty piece and were intended to be worn as a necklace.
To answer your question regarding 'value' ... I suggest you take it to your local jeweler who advertises as being a purchaser of old jewelry, etc. for the melt value.
The highest price I found to be paid for a Morgan Silver Dollar melt was around $24.00. The average price paid was $11.00 and change. The lowest price being paid was $4.00 and change.
As close as I will 'guess' as being the value of your "very large Mercury dime" ... is a value ranging between $4.00 and $24.00.
I hope this has been helpful to you.
