How much does a dime weigh?
All dimes made since 1965 weigh exactly 2.268 grams which equals 0.085 ounces. That means our 10,000,000 dimes ($1,000,000) weigh 22,680,000 grams. That’s 22,680 kilograms! Not familiar with grams? 22,680,000 grams is equal to 80,013.5 ounces of dimes. 80,013.5 ounces is 5,000.8 pounds worth of dimes. That’s a lot of dimes!
What are dimes made of?
Dimes are primarily copper but also are made of nickel. To be precise, our modern-day dimes are 91.67% copper and 8.33% nickel. It wasn’t always this way though! Before 1965, dimes were 90% silver and 10% copper. If you have 10,000,000 dimes ($1,000,000), you are holding 20,790,756 grams of copper and 1,889,244 grams of nickel in your hand. If you prefer to work in ounces, that’s 73,348.4 ounces of copper and 6,665.1 ounces of nickel.
What hasn’t changed is that each dime is still worth 10 cents, even though it’s no longer made from silver.
How thick is a dime?
Modern-day dimes are 1.35mm thick which is equal to 0.061 inches. If we stacked our 10,000,000 dimes ($1,000,000) starting from the ground, our dimes would reach 13,500,000 mm high. That’s 1,350,000 centimeters which is 13,500 meters high! If you prefer feet, your 10,000,000 dimes would reach 44,291 feet high. That’s up with the airplanes high!
