Can anyone tell me the term "dime", does it refer to British money or American money? And what does it mean?
Thanks a lot in advance |

American money and despite travelling to the states many times I can never remember how much it �s worth :-) I think one dime is 10 cents; one nickel is 5 cents and a quarter is 25 cents.
I hope I got this right, if not, Americans (or whoever knows dollars better then me) please correct me!

Hi:
A dime is American. It is 10 cents. A penny is 1 cent. A nickle is 5 cents. A quarter is 25 cents. In Canada a looney is $1 or a buck and a fin is $5.
Hope this helps. |
