Please help me identify this (1968 dime item)

image

Why do I have a 1968-D dime sealed in a plastic pouch? What is that gray/white powder with it? I tried searching on the internet, but "dimebag" kept leading me down the wrong path. I'm sure this is some common novelty item from back in the day...

    Looks to me like you got a "dime" of cocaine there. Remove dime, dispose of the other. Least that what it looks like to me and I'm not kidding. jws

    This came from the collection of an 84 year old man. As a collector, he was most active from 1962-1972.

    Silver granules/precipitate from one of the last silver certificate redemptions? They ended in 1968. Someone put his silver dust and a 1968 dime into a baggie and sealed it? Check the weight, if it is silver dust it should weigh about 26.3 grams. Nah, just took another look at the picture, not enough dust there.
