I have "dug" quarters rejected all the time.
Alloy issue maybe.

It also rings as silver on my pro and sounds like it I'm stumped and it doesn't even look like silver it's going in a coin roll the heck with it!

Maybe it got pulled out of a proof set?

There are no 1967 proof sets only special mint sets.

nope tried that to its got alot of red on it doesnt wash off with soap water and cant tumble it since i sold my tumbler im still confused tomm ill post a pic prob wont help either
Some of those older quarters are odd.just dug a 67 i thought was silver.65's can really fool you sometimes.These new ones are probably recycled copper with all sorts of allows in minute particles.
by red do you possibly mean copper colored? could be missing the clad layer would explain a different color and lower weight i would think

Quarter
65 66 67 quarters have a higher silver content. In 1968 it was phased out

Yes, but Canadian coins, not US coins. US were silver until 1964, Canada phased out the silver in 1968.

Red?
I have seen red quarters before. A friend of mine owned a video game arcade and the machines were not all his. If he gave someone a free game, he used a quarter with fingernail polish on it to mark it as a free game. The owner of the machine would return those to him when he came to get the coins out.
They were standard weight quarters, though.
