In the past many coins were "holed" for a number of different reasons. One reason was people would wear them on a bracelet or necklace. Another reason is that people would string coins together and wear them around their neck to avoid being seen with a lot of money which would invite robbery.

If my dime from 1916 has a hole in it is it still worth anything?

It's at least worth its silver value, about $2. If you have a 1916-D Mercury dime, be prepared to cry and hope you don't meet the person who put a hole in it. Undamaged, a 1916-D would retail for a minimum of $1000. On the off chance that's what you have, there may be enough interest in it to get more than its metal value, depending on how and why the hole was drilled/punched.
