What makes you think it is Broadstruck, is it larger than a normal quarter?
Also not sure what you mean by mint tolerance, it is either Broadstruck or not.

Or is that just a slightly off center strike?

Guessing this is is just a slight die mis-alignment.

That has just been struck slightly off centre.
Not off enough to make any difference in value.

FYI
A Broadstruck coin is one that is struck out of collar .
