Dime... burned in fire... then corroded in salt water...
OR
Dime that has been dipped/submerged in acid.

I think it is a dime as well. I read a theory online that silver coins rolling around the ocean can take on a sand blasted/pitted type look. It is super, super thin. I think it is just a beat up old silver dime. However, I'm going to pretend it is a reale.
; interesting coin find.
