Why is your 1965 quarter made of different material than the others?

It should be made of a 3-layer "sandwich" with a copper center like all quarters dated 1965 and later.
If it's a lighter color than a normal quarter and doesn't show the copper edge, it could be either
(A) plated, in which case it's worth a quarter
(B) an off-metal strike, meaning it was struck on a blank meant for another coin.
You'd need to have it examined in person to make sure what it is.
