The silver in liberty dimes can be used to work a charm for luck in gambling. Also, a dime worn around the ankle is for protection and if you put a dime in someone's mouth and it turns black, you can tell if they've been cursed.
None, Roosevelt dimes replaced the Mercury dimes in1946
No, nor are any U.S. dimes. Mercury dimes are made of silver and copper, neither of which are magnetic.
No. "Mercury" dimes (really Liberty dimes, but everyone calls them Mercury dimes) were made from 1916 to 1945. Roosevelt's portrait was put on the dime in 1946, that's why they're called Roosevelt dimes.

Yes they do, all Mercury Head dimes are 90% silver and 10% copper.

Mercury (1916-1945) dimes and Roosevelt (1946 to date) dimes are two different series of US coins. Post new question with a date.
Mercury dimes minted from 1941 to 1945 are very common, if it has any wear, the value is about $2.00 just for the silver.
