Best Answer

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.

What is the value of a mercury head 1916 quarter?

You've got to be very specific. First off, there are no Mercury Head quarters. There are however Mercury dimes produced during 1916, along with Barber dimes produced during 1916. If you have a Barber dime dated 1916 it is worth a few bucks for silver depending on the condition. On the other hand, if you have a Mecury dime with a 1916 and a D mintmark on the reverse, you have a coin worth several hundred to several thousands of dollars depending on condition. If you have just a 1916 dime with no, or another mintmark, it is only worth a few bucks for silver. There are also quarters produced in 1916. Like the dime there were 2 designs that year, the more common Barber quarter worth about $7 in scrap depending on the condition, and the key-dated 1916 Standing Liberty Quarter worth several hundred dollars depending on condition. So without knowing what your coin is, it is impossible to say how much it is worth.
