The mass of any coin is typically measured in grams; the capacity or volume would be measured in millilitres.
There is only one metric system. The relevant units, within that system would be millimetres.
A United States dime coin is 1.35 mm thick. See related link.
Something small like a dime.
Measuring the thickness of a dime in kilometers would be impractical because a kilometer is a unit suited for measuring long distances, not small objects. A dime's thickness is only about 1.35 millimeters, which is much better expressed in millimeters or centimeters for clarity and precision. Using kilometers would result in an awkwardly small decimal number, making it harder to understand and communicate the size effectively. Thus, choosing the appropriate unit for the measurement context is essential.
A dime has a diameter of approximately 17.91 mm, making it significantly larger than 10 mm. Specifically, 10 mm is about 56% the diameter of a dime. Therefore, if you visualize a dime, 10 mm would be a little less than two-thirds the size of its diameter.

what is a thickness of a dime in metric measurements?
The unit you should use to measure the thin edge of a dime would be millimeters.
Why, dime, of course! ---- Indeed, as the word "dime" means "tenth" anyway.

It is 1.35 millimetres thick.
The diameter and thickness of the penny could be expressed in millimeters = 'mm'. The area of the penny's faces, or even of its edge, could be expressed in square millimeters = 'mm2'. The volume of material in the penny could be expressed in cubic centimeters 'cc' or cubic millimeters 'mm3'. The mass and weight of the penny could both be expressed in grams = 'gm'. The age of the penny since it was minted could be expressed as a large number of seconds = 's'.
For the width of a penny and a dime, you would typically measure in millimeters. The width of a penny is approximately 19.05 mm, and the width of a dime is approximately 17.91 mm.
