August 1, 2009 The 1940 Mercury dime was produced at 3 US Mint facilities; Philadelphia, Pennsylvania which is shown as 1940-P in this answer. Denver,Colorado which is shown as 1940-D in this reply. San Francisco, California which is shown as 1940-S in this reply. To determine which mint produced your dime you must find the mint mark. This mark is located on the reverse side of the coin just to the right of the letter "E" in the word "ONE". If there is no mint mark, the coin was minted at Philadelphia. A "D" indicates Denver. An "S" indicates San Francisco.The circulated and uncirculated values for these coins are shown in the chart below. Circulated Grades............1940-P...........1940-D............1940-S G4.....................................$4...................$4.....................$4 F12....................................$4...................$4.....................$4 EF40..................................$5....................$5.....................$5 Uncirculated GradesMS60..................................$8....................$8......................$8 MS63..................................$13..................$13....................$13 MS64..................................$17..................$17.....................$17 MS65..................................$22..................$30.....................$30 Coins in higher uncirculated grades and those with "Full Bands" command higher values.
