I modified your question because coins are struck or minted rather than "printed", which refers to books and banknotes.
It's not possible to say exactly what happened without looking at your coin but my first guess is that it was exposed to some corrosive or acidic liquid. Because of the way copper "flows" when a coin is struck, the design will still appear clearly even when much of the metal has been dissolved.
Unfortunately that makes it a damaged coin with no extra numismatic value. It's still an interesting curiosity, though.

What descriptions applies to matte surfaces?
Matte or matt proof coins normally are associated with very well struck up coins with a dark or dull patina. They are normally struck in the Coronation Year of any king or queen.

How much would a blank dime be worth?
Assuming it's the same thickness as a normal dime, you have what's called a "flan". This error occurs when a coin blank accidentally slips into the bin with coins that have already been struck. If your flan has a smooth edge, it's worth about $1. If it has upturned edges like a regular coin but no design, it's worth about $2.
What is the value of a mis-struck 1970 penny that is one third the thickness of a regular penny?
It's difficult to tell without seeing the coin in person. A thin strike(*) could be the result of being struck on a thinner-than-normal blank (called a planchet) or the coin could have been dipped in acid. The first would be considered a mint error and would definitely be worth a premium. The second would be a damaged coin worth 1 cent. (*) I reworded your question slightly since the process of making coins is called striking rather than stamping.
