The "W" refers to the designer of the coin, Adolph Weinman, and appears on all Mercury dimes. The 1934-D dime (the "D" is called a mintmark, and refers to where the coin was produced - in this case, Denver - and is located on the back of the coin, just below and to the left of the bundle of branches) would retail at between about $2.00 in heavily circulated condition to about $50.00 in uncirculated condition. Expect to pay more than $50 for an extraordinarily good example. The 1934 dime (no mintmark, which means it was produced in Philadelphia) would retail at between about $1.50 in heavily circulated condition to about $30.00 in uncirculated condition. Again, expect to pay more than $30 for an extraordinarily good example.

How much is a 1935 mercury dime with mint code w worth?

W isn't a standard mint mark for any Mercury dime. 1935 isn't a rare date, so the value is at least $2 for the silver content, and up to $7 in uncirculated condition for Philadelphia, $25 for Denver, and $15 for San Francisco.


What is the value of a 1918-w Mercury Head Dime?

Well, first off you don't have a 1918 W Mercury dime, the West Point Mint wouldn't be established for several more years and never produced any coins with a W mintmark for circulation. The W is the designer's initials, any mintmark will be on the reverse. None of the 1918 coins are rare so they are worth the price of silver, assuming they are in circulated condition, which is about $2.11 at the time of writing, if uncirculated it could be worth quite a bit more.
