Off-Center vs. Uncentered Broadstrike

What determines if a coin is off-center vs. an uncentered broadstrike?
For example if any part of the rim is missing, is it off-center? If the denticles are missing, is it off-center?
Which one is this?

Denticles are missing indicate an off center coin.
Just the rim missing no off center.
Is that double struck? Whats up with the obverse at 12:00 to 2:00?
Great. Thanks @ErrorsOnCoins !
Yes, it's double struck. "GTON TO" from "WASHINGTON TOKEN" are visible on the second strike's rim. You can also see the first strike's denticles from 12:00 to 2:00.
The funny thing is that it's in a regular holder as a MS66. No mention of any errors at all. I'm thinking about ssending it in to get both errors noted on the slab.
That is a really nice error coin... and yes, would be good to have it noted...Cheers, RickO

Still learning about errors too.
From what I understand, OC coins are missing part of the total details at some level.
Broadstruck coins have all of said die design.
Am I on the right track?
