You Should Have 200 Dimes Which Is $ 20.00 US
Assuming you're referring to cents minted after 1982 and dimes minted after 1964, the answer is simple, regardless of whether you estimate or calculate exactly:Estimate:A kilogram is roughly 2.2 US pounds. Dimes weigh only slightly less than cents, thus there are about 2.3 times as many dimes in a kilo versus pennies in a US pound. On top of that, a dime is worth 10 cents so a kilo of dimes is worth roughly 23 times as much as a pound of pennies.Exact calculation:Current US cents weigh 2.5 gm. One US pound is the same as 453.6 gm so there are 453.6 / 2.5 = 181 pennies in a US pound (rounded to the nearest whole amount), or $1.81Current US dimes weigh 2.27 gm, so there are 1000 / 2.27 = 440 dimes in a kilo (again, rounded), or $44.(FWIW, 23 x $1.81 = $41.63 so the estimate is pretty close to the exact figure!)
Modern (i.e. 1965 and later) US dimes weigh 2.27 gm each which is 0.08 oz. That means 200 dimes weigh about one US pound, so 10 lbs would be 2000 dimes or $20.
