A dime has a diameter of 17.91 mm. That picture doesn't give me a diameter, but looking at a dime here that region is about 16mm at the longest section of the dime in the pic (434 pixels), so about 27 pixels per mm. Most of the grains I measured there were 20-35 pixels long, so 0.75mm to 1.3mm grain size.
