To my eyes, looks like someone tapped it with a welder tip.

Looks like some kind of staining to me.

It's rusting from the inside out.
The fate of all our steel coins once the plating is breached by damage.
It's the Canadian coin equivalent of Zinc Rot

@dodoal - This picture appears to be of a 2001-P Canadian nickel, not a dime.
There were two nickels that year, one no P and one with a P.
Yours is a 2001-P, multi-ply plated steel (94.5% steel, 3.5% copper, 2% nickel plating)
As DBM says: "It's rusting from the inside out. The fate of all our steel coins once the plating is breached by damage."
The nickel plating has been damaged in some way and the steel core is rusting. PMD.
