August 11, 2009 Coins such as this, which have been altered after leaving the mint, generally have no numismatic value. Their only worth is in the silver they contain which is $1.04 for a dime today.
A dime has a face value of 10 cents.
It's worth around 10 times its face value.
A mercury dime has a face of a personification of liberty on it with a winged helmet. They are called mercury dimes because it looks like Mercury from mythology.
Mercury is depicted on the face of a silver dime because the design of the dime features the allegorical figure of Liberty wearing a winged Phrygian cap, which is associated with the Roman god Mercury. Mercury was the god of financial gain, commerce, and communication, making it a fitting choice for a coin representing value and trade.

Your time can be worth from 3 dollars to 35 dollars depending if it is in perfect condition. Mercury dimes are worth at least ten times their face value.
The coin is face value.
The coin is still in circulation and is face value only.
The FACE value of any coin or bill is the denomination shown on it; i.e. how much it was worth when first released. Thus the face value of any dime is 10 cents. However, the metal value of a coin may be higher or lower than its face value, and the collector's value could be a third and different amount.In the case of a 1938 dime, its metal value is at least $1 as of 10/2009 because it's made of 90% silver alloy. Its value to a collector is at least that much, possibly several times more.
