Check it more often and wipe off the dipstick when you do. Won't have that crud on it
 
Maybe someone accidentally poured something into the overflow tank ? Take the radiator cap off (when it’s completely cold) and see what the fluid actually in the pressurized part of the system looks like. That’s 10 year 100k mile coolant. My 21 is at 50k and you have to try hard to see the coolant level on the stick it’s so clean.

2019, 5 yrs, 37K miles and I stick medical tape to the dip stick to be sure of the reading. I question if it was topped off with an incompatible anti-freeze. Some things are not that simple these days.
