Come on man.... did you even look at your picture? Can barely tell it's a quarter

 

This is your picture and even if I was a professional, I wouldn't be able to determine what it is

 

Eric, Welcome to CT. As Tyler so tactful mentioned, we can't tell anything from your picture (sorry for the sarcasm Tyler). I'm assuming you think you have a 1965 quarter struck on a leftover 90% silver planchet from 1964. It's pretty unlikely that you found one as the are very rare, but you can easily tell by checking the weight. A silver planchet weighs 6.25 grams while a clad planchet from 1965 onward weighs 5.75 grams. Make sure you use a scale that read to at least 0.1 gram

 

Also...that is the REVERSE.... the OBVERSE is the side commonly referred to as 'heads'...

 

Though I think they poster may be referring to the 64s (plural not MM) with the Reverse of 65 (the Types A, B & C) though we may never know unless the question is clarified and HQ pictures of Obv and Rev are posted. Semper Fidelis

 

I think the clads weigh 5.67grams. And 6.25 for silver as mentioned.

 

My bad. It looks like I accidently read the weight of the Silver clad bicentennial quarter

 

Is that really a quarter?
