It's probably enviromental substances, toning, or some discoloration. Weighing it would be the best bet.

 The weight will give the answer, but from the appearance, it certainly seems to be the 90% silver alloy it is supposed to be with normal tarnish, or oxidation.

clad don't come in tell 1965 , you can find 65 no clad ,but don't know how it could be the other way around. the staining may make it look funny , but on the back at 10 oclock looks PMD or something .hope you didn't pay much. good luck and happy hunting

Just a nicely toned 90% Silver Dime. No errors here, but still a very nice Dime. 
Errers and Varietys.

It's possible because they were making both compositions during the same time period. They started making the clad coins in 1965 but they didn't stop making the silver coins until around April 1966.

 Sounds like a like Silver coin. Not a clad. The copper layer stands out like a sore thumb.
