Yes and no. If your coin was minted in Denver it will have a "D" mintmark, however, if your coin was minted in Philadelphia, it will have no mintmark.
No. All dimes minted since 1946 use the same design; the only difference is the mint mark. But from 1965 to 1967 the use of mint marks was temporarily discontinued while the Mints worked to strike new clad coins to replace the old silver ones, so 1966 dimes don't even have mint marks.
A 1972 Liberty dime without a mint mark was produced at the Philadelphia Mint, which did not place mint marks on dimes during that year. In contrast, dimes minted in Denver and San Francisco featured their respective mint marks. Collectors often seek out these variations, as the absence of a mint mark indicates a Philadelphia origin, making it part of a distinct category in numismatic collections.
Dates and mint marks are hand made at the Philadelphia Mint, so dies can differ.
The 1914 Mercury dimes were minted at three locations: the Philadelphia Mint, the Denver Mint, and the San Francisco Mint. The Philadelphia Mint produced the majority of the coins, while the Denver and San Francisco Mints created smaller quantities, indicated by their respective mint marks. These dimes feature the image of Liberty wearing a winged cap and were part of the U.S. coinage from 1916 to 1945.
Value is about $1.00 and JS is NOT a mint mark it's the designers initials, the mint mark is on the reverse. Obverse mint marks were not used on dimes until 1968

No Mercury head dimes were struck at the West Point Mint. The "W" on the front of the coin is the designer's initial.

In 1990, the Philadelphia mint struck 1,034,340,000 dimes, the Denver mint struck 839,995,824 dimes and the San Francisco mint struck 3,299,559 proof dimes for a total of 1,877,635,463.
In general no. Prior to 1980 only the D&S mintmark's were used. Coins struck at the Philadelphia Mint did not use a mintmark. From 1980 to date the Mint added a "P" mintmark. But some Proof sets have Dimes that lack a S mintmark, they do have much higher values.
That's "backWARDS", not "words", and 1967 dimes didn't have mint marks. Mint marks were not used on any U.S. coins from 1965 to 1967. Please post a new question indicating where the backwards letter or number is located with respect to the rest of the design.
That would be mint mark rather than "marks" because a coin can only be minted in one Mint. The mint mark position on all Mercury dimes is the same, next to the E in the word ONE on the back. Blank = Philadelphia D = Denver S = San Francisco There's more information at the Related Question.
yes. between the Denver mint and the Philadelphia mint, over 700 million dimes were made.
