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.

What is a one sided 1966-1967 dime?
You most likely have what's called a lamination error. The value of a delaminated clad dime is around $6 to $8. This error can happen when the copper-nickel cladding comes off one or both sides of a "sandwich" dime, quarter, half, or dollar. Lamination errors can also happen with non-clad coins but it occurs less often. The cladding can come off before or after the coin blank is struck with its design, and it can be difficult to determine when.

What color was Susan B. Anthony's coin?
The Susan B. Anthony dollar was struck in copper-nickel using the same alloy and same process as the modern US quarter, dime and half-dollar, so the color is the same as the modern quarter, dime or half-dollar. It is a silvery color (though the coin contained no silver!).
