This coin is called a Liberty Head Dime or a "Barber" dime, after its designer Charles Barber.

Look on the back of the coin to see if there's a small mint mark letter below the wreath. It may be blank or there may be an S.

Numismedia lists the following approximate retail values as of 03/2013:

No mint mark (Philadelphia):
Very worn condition - 0.072 times the current price of silver, about $4 at time of posting.
Moderately worn - $6
Slightly worn - $8
Almost no wear - $60
Uncirculated - $106 to $4,290 depending on quality

"S" mint mark (San Francisco):
Very worn - $18
Moderately worn - $96
Slightly worn - $180
Almost no wear - $340
Uncirculated - $510 to $10,210

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.
