If it's a modern copper-nickel dime (1965 or later) it has no extra value so you could try using Tarn-X or a similar cleaner. However, a modern dime is worth the same 10 cents whether it's shiny or tarnished.

What does a brown color dime on both sides mean?
A brown dime could just be tarnished or discolored. Different chemicals can cause a coin to tarnish in different ways, especially if it is silver. If the dime was minted after 1965, it is possible the nickel layer on the outside of the dime is missing. This could be due to an error at the mint in which case the dime is collectable. It could also be due to a chemical treatment that removed the nickel from the dime which is considered damage to the coin and is not collectable. I would suggest you take the coin to a coin dealer since it is always easier to identifiy a coin if someone can actually see it.
