Hi. I've been collecting mainly decimal coins but my main interest is in this misprint one I have. It's a 2005 5 cent but I can't seem to find anything on it! I figured u guys would know more

 Not too sure what you mean by misprint.  Do you have a picture? It will help us to help you.

There were some 2005 5c that were minted whilst only partially in the collar, and they appear to be a bit off centre. I have 4 examples of these and can post some images tomorrow.

Hi KATC15 welcome to the forum. Misprint is not a term generally used when referring to coins, since they are not actually printed. Maybe it's a mis-strike?
