Does a dime weigh less than a penny?
Yes, according to the United States Mint website (link found below) the penny weighs 2.5 grams while the dime weighs 2.268 grams.MoreThe reason dates back to the 1850s when coins contained their face value in metal. At that time cents were converted from pure copper to cupro-nickel and then to bronze, while dimes were made of 90% silver. Even then silver was far more valuable than bronze so dimes had to contain less metal and were smaller than cents. Unlike most other countries the US didn't change its coins' sizes when silver was removed in the 1960s so dimes remain smaller than both cents and nickels.

Is a flat or rounded cue tip better?
A flat cue tip cannot hit the cue ball with predictable results. Cue tips are typically rounded to "nickel" or "dime" shapes. These terms indicate how round it is - with a dime shape being identical to the curvature of a dime, and nickel shpae somewhat flatter like the curve of a nickel. The cue tip in use by a good player when using much "English" will use the dime tip, as it will stay in contact with the ball longer than nickel shape. The nickel shape is more forgiving and an all around use shape, and is more common for most players.

Is there a such thing as a 1996 copper dime?
Yes and no. The way post-1964 dimes, half dollars and quarters are made is with copper-nickel. It is slightly possible that it was a defective blank and doesn't contain the copper layer, it is also possible that it could be struck on a blank intended for a penny. However, the most likely explanation is that someone stripped off the outer nickel coating leaving the copper core. Most likely it really isn't worth too much, but without seeing the coin in person, it isn't easy to say what it is.
