There are some gold plated bicentennial half dollars that sell for upwards of $100. However, you must be sure that a COA is included that individually numbers each coin.
July 24, 2009 Gold plating a coin destroys its numismatic value. The Bicentennial quarter is worth but a quarter plus the value of the bit of gold used to plate it.
None of the Bicentennial coins were struck in gold. Many of these coins have been gold plated privately and sold as "Collectibles" but they have no numismatic value. It's just a dollar.
Only 25 cents, unfortunately. Lots of companies sold plated Bicentennial coins as "collectibles" but as soon as the Bicentennial was over, interest plummeted and the secondary collectors' market pretty much dried up.
The U.S. Mint did not produce any gold dollars for the bicentennial. There are aftermarket examples of gold plated dollars but they are just regular production coins which have been gold plated. They have no added numismatic value and their actual value is limited to the value of the metals in them .
The values of any colorized or plated coin is whatever you can get for it, they have no numismatic value at all. But it's still a quarter

What you have is a regular quarter that someone (NOT the U.S. Mint) gold plated.
It's not actually gold, but rather a regular copper/nickel bicentennial quarter that's been gold-plated. Modifying it like that actually destroys collector value. It's only worth as much as someone on eBay is willing to pay; probably $5 or less.
What IS a silver bicentennial penny? The US Mint didn't make one, so you are probably looking at a normal 1976 cent that has been silver plated by a private novelty company. It will have no numismatic value but you may get a dollar or so from someone who collects bicentennial memorabilia.
