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.

They don't exist, the first Roosevelt dime was 1946. With a date of 1940 the dime is a MERCURY dime and is common with average values of $1.00-$3.00 depending on condition.
Mercury dimes from 1940 to 1945 in average circulated condition are mostly valued for the silver content, about $3.00.
A 1940 Mercury dime (not Liberty) is very common. If it shows any wear, the value is just for the silver, about $1.90.
The dime you have is a mercury dime and the value depends on the condition of the coin. They can range from 99 cents to 200 dollars and they can also go up to 800 dollars if they are a proof.
Ten cents was the value of the dime in 1940.
