No gold dimes were ever officially made. However individuals or private companies can plate the dimes to look gold and they are simply a novelty. However sometimes they can go for a few dollars due to their slight gold content.

No. It has either been plated or exposed to a chemical that caused the color to change. Even if plated with 24 K gold, it would cost more to remove the gold than it would be worth.

YES! I am researching how much myself. It is a dime that was never meant to be in circulation. This was told to me by the bankers who found it when I turned in coins.

Were gold dimes produced in 1997?

Gold dimes were not made in 1997 or any other year for that matter. If you have a "gold" dime it's been plated. Think about it for a minute - gold sells for about $900 an ounce and is far too valuable to be used in such a low denomination coin. A gold coin the size of a dime would be worth about $75. Alternately, 10 cents worth of gold would be so tiny you'd need tweezers and a magnifying glass to pick it up.
