Thank you

Answer
Hello, Aurelia, it depends on what condition it is in.  If it is in uncirculated condition (as made in 1941) it could be worth up to $30 or so, but that is very unlikely, it would have to be essentially without any noticeable marks or flaws.  If it is just a standard used circulated 1941 dime (called a Mercury dime), it would only be worth silver value and I think that's around a $1 or so.  You could go to www.ebay.com and do a search for 1941 dime and see if anyone is selling a piece like yours and what it is selling for and what it looks like.  Hope this helped, Jim Lawniczak
