US circulating silver coins were never made of pure silver. It's too soft and would wear quickly, so the metal was alloyed with 10% copper.
Without a date, it's not possible to say anything about its value except that the raw silver is worth around $2.25 as of 01/2011. However it could be worth more to a collector; please enter the question "What is the value of a (date) US dime?" in the box at the top of the page, replacing (date) with the date on your dime.
