Looks like what ever it is, it rubs off with circulation. With a missing clad, it doesn't rub off of the tops of the devices. I would keep it for now as an unknown till we know more about it.

Suggest consider something like this:

Or search ebay for "Vintage Micrometer".

The dime may have been struck on an improperly annealed planchet. If it retains its original mint luster, that would be the most likely diagnosis.
