Best Answer

It depends very much on its condition whether it has a mint mark.

Look on the back of the coin to see if there's a small letter below the wreath. It may be blank or there may be an O or (very unlikely) an S.

Numismedia lists the following approximate retail values as of 09/2011:

No mint mark (Philadelphia):

Very worn condition - $25

Moderately worn - $116

Slightly worn - $156

Almost no wear - $232

Uncirculated - $318 to $8,450 depending on quality

"O" mint mark (New Orleans):

Very worn - $72

Moderately worn - $198

Slightly worn - $300

Almost no wear - $706

Uncirculated - $1,530 to $34,450

"S" mint mark (San Francisco): Extremely rare; any 1894-S dime has to be authenticated by experts to make sure it isn't a counterfeit

Very worn - $75,000

Moderately worn - $93,750

Slightly worn - $104,380

Almost no wear - $119,628

Uncirculated - $312,500 to $2,187,500

DISCLAIMER: The retail values quoted are the best available as of the date shown, but may vary significantly due to changes in the precious metals market. Also the wholesale (buying) price of a coin will be less than the selling (retail) price. A reputable coin dealer will be able to give a more accurate valuation based on inspection of the coin.
