It's not pure silver. Up to 1964 circulation U.S. dimes, quarters, and halves were made of an alloy of 90% silver and 10% copper.

You need to be more specific. All dimes prior to 1946 had a picture of Liberty on the obverse. You need to post a new question including the date, mintmark (if any) and an estimate of condition. Only then will we be able to tell you if your coin is worth just silver scrap or thousands of dollars.

There is no such thing (well, there are a few records of '65 dimes being struck on silver planchets) the last silver dime was dated 1964, all 1965 dimes are copper-nickel.

Not enough information. Please post a new question with the coin's date and mint mark (if it has one).

It is worth about 2 dollars for the silver content. However, depending on the date, mintmark, and condition it will be worth more.
