The "W" isn't a mint mark. It's an intertwined A and W that form the monogram of the coin's designer, A. A. Weinman.
Before 1968 most US Coins except Lincoln cents had the mintmark on the coin's reverse. The location on a Mercury dime is to the right of the letter E in the word ONE:
blank = Philadelphia
D = Denver
S = San Francisco
In any case, the West Point Mint wasn't established until 1988; the W mintmark appears only on collector's and bullion coins.
