Any circulating US dime dated before 1965 is made of silver and is at least worth its melt value. Earlier designs of dimes such as the Mercury and Barber for the most part have some additional collector value.

Why is a dime smaller than a nickel?
Originally, a cent had 1 cent's worth of copper, a nickel 5 cents' worth of nickel, and a dime 10 cents' worth of silver. Because the same weight of each metal was worth a different amount, the coins' sizes had to be different in order to match weights and values. For example, silver was (and still is) worth a lot more per ounce than copper, so a dime could have a lot less metal in it but be worth far more than a copper cent. - - - - - - - - Even though the monetary value of coins no longer represents the value of their metal content, the traditional coin sizes have been maintained. It's because these coins originally were made of other metals so that their intrinsic (i.e. melt) value was approximately equal to their face value. In 1964 silver was removed from dimes and quarters but the coins were kept the same sizes so they'd continue to work in vending machines, coin sorters, etc. There's more information at the Related Question linked below. - - - - - - - - Because that is what they were worth in the material they were made of, and nickel metal is cheaper than the metal they use for dimes. - - - - - - - - When dollars, half dollars, quarters and dimes were made of silver, half dimes made of silver were smaller than dimes because they were half the weight. At that time cents were about the size of half-dollars and half cents were the size of nickels.
