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 $1.81
Current 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!)

How do you know if your penny is silver or steel?
Half of that is easy, and the other half is almost as simple. First, the U.S. never made any silver pennies because they'd be worth more than dimes. Second, the only steel pennies were struck in 1943 when copper was needed for the war effort. A genuine steel cent will stick to a magnet. If you have any other date that's silvery in color, it's almost certainly a normal cent that someone plated.
