Simply to call someone on a phone.
From when the cost of a pay phone was 10 cents, or a dime. You dropped a dime in the phone to make a call.

To lose a good girl. To lose someone that you loved that was beautiful, that was a 10.
"You dropped your dime, so i picked it up." -Joe
Means: You lost your girl (Often means did something stupid to lose her) so now she's my girl, now she's fair game. That is another way to say "drop a dime"
