This means to snitch on someone or to turn them in. Back when phone calls were only a dime, people would DROP A DIME into the pay phone, possibly anonymously to police. Thus Dropping Dimes got someone arrested or snitched on.
Some one was dropping dimes on me and the police picked me up. I think it was that snitch Jimmy!

Drop dime means to rat someone out, or reveal information, in any situation. It derived from late 1960's and 70's South, where there were 33 fires a day at one point, and crime was the highest it ever was. Thus, many people would rat to save thier own ass, and they'd use a dime because that's what it cost.
