    Definitely and off-center strike. Pretty cool. I highly doubt it is silver though since you can see the copper core on the picture you took of the edge. You could always weigh it.

    EDIT: I just looked at the broadstrike and yeah it is possibly that vice a regular off center since none of the design elements are missing.

    Will an uncentered broadstrike flatten the coin and or change the sound of it?

    I don't believe in or care for sound tests.. Means nothing. It's a normal 1965 Quarter with a Broadstrike. That is all.

    What about this one 1984 .. seems to have a different design on the reverse..

    The error has value. But I don't believe it is silver.
    And it looks cleaned. I wouldn't mind having it in my collection.

    Not sure about it being cleaned but Iv had it around a year and I haven’t cleaned it.. I have a bunch of different coins I’d love to get some advise on.. this is the first time Iv ever shown them off.. so if it’s a broad strike then I also have a 1966 broad struck penny cause it looks made the same way..

    Weight and an edge view would be much more valuable than the sound.

    Welcome to ConTalk. Good place to ask questions and get pretty good answers. If you don't agree, remember these guys have been collecting longer than you have been alive.

    It's a nice uncentered broad strike as others have mentioned. It appears to be a normal clad planchet.

    Just because you have not cleaned it, does not mean someone else who owned it before you did not clean it. Believe it or not cleaning coins was popular in the past, thankfully people learned it was bad and the practice has mostly died off. Most of those who clean coins now, simply are not collectors.

    ^^^^ This.
    I didn't say you cleaned it. I said it looks as if it may have been cleaned.

    It is a 1965, and it is off-centered not a broadstrike (Part of the design is off the edge of the coin, most noticeably the tops of the T's in United and States.)and it is not silver.

    I agree that it is a Off-Center Strike.
    I should have read the directions twice. again.
