Look on the back of the coin to see if there's a small mint mark letter. It may be blank or there may be an O or S.

Numismedia lists the following approximate retail values as of 03/2010 for an 1859 Liberty Seated dime:

No mint mark (Philadelphia):

Very worn condition - $13

Moderately worn - $20

Slightly worn - $24

Almost no wear - $174

Uncirculated - $300 to $19,380 depending on quality

"O" mint mark (New Orleans):

Very worn condition - $13

Moderately worn - $25

Slightly worn - $39

Almost no wear - $203

Uncirculated - $360 to $15,600

"S" mint mark (San Francisco):

Very worn condition - $127

Moderately worn - $348

Slightly worn - $690

Almost no wear - $5,006

Uncirculated - $12,190 to $116,880
