1917 is $2.00 in good condition
1921-D is $65.00 in good condition
1921 is $45.00 in good condition
1928 is $1.50 in good condition
The mintmark is located on the reverse, left of torch next to the word ONE at the bottom.
Blank is Philadelphia
D is Denver
S is San Francisco
Of course the better the condition the more they are worth.

In the date span you give only the 1921 and 1921-D are actually worth a good sum. The 1921 sells for around $75.00 in very good and the 1921-D sells for $125.00 in that grade. Of course in higher grades both coins are worth a lot more money. Take off 40 to 50 % and that is what a dealer would pay. It is almost impossible to tell someone how much a coin is worth without seeing it, The grade of the coin determines the value. The others are worth less than a dollar to maybe a couple of dollars depending on grade and date. The correct name for the Mercury dime by the way is Winged Liberty Head. The mint mark is on the reverse at the bottom left.

Any early mercury, (or more properly winged liberty), dimes are worth more than melt if they have a mintmark. Also, any 1921 dimes are worth more than melt. If it is well worn, and no mint mark, (on the reverse to the left of the fasces at the bottom), then it is worth melt, which right now is a little less than a dollar. If it is in better shape, has a mintmark, or is 1921, then either check out a guidebook or check with a dealer.

Go to pcgs.com, then go to the prices page. This is the Professional Coin Grading Service web site. The price listings are fairly reasonable. You might want to get a coin grading book to get a better idea of the grades as this is the key to having any value in the coins.

Not much, sorry. They are worth more than a dime, but less than a buck.
