    A ruler with millimeters will work fine.

    Did a little research on YouTube it could be a dime and there's a type 1 and a type 2 but it's the same size as a penny

    It's called a caliper or micrometer. They're not expensive at Harbor Freight.

    Good luck.

    So that you know. A type 1 is a planchet that was just punched from sheet stock. A type 2 planchet has been run thru the upsetting mill and has raised edges. That looks like a type 2 clad dime planchet except you say that it is the same size as a cent. The weight is right just not the diameter.
