It's not possible to be sure without seeing the item, but your "quarter" may actually be an advertising giveaway that was handed out by a gasoline company about 35 or 40 years ago. There were millions of them so they really don't have much collector value today, unfortunately.
It's not a real quarter. These were novelty items given out as promotional items.
1796 is the first year the US issued a quarter, look at the coin again and post new question.
This is a novelty coin and was not made by the US Mint it has no numismatic collectible value.
There are no 3 headed quarters minted by the U.S. Mint.
Look at the date again. NO Washington quarter should have a date before 1932. Double headed and double tailed coins are called magician's coins and are made by machining and joining parts from two real quarters. They have no numismatic value but are sold by novelty shops for $5 - $10 and are available on eBay for $2 - $3.
I have a 1994 quarter double date, what is the worth ?

Yes, although the machinists who make the double headed quarters actually machine away the appropriate parts and stick together the heads of two quarters to make a double headed quarter... or half or whatever he is trying to make. While there have never been any 2-headed quarters found, there have been 3 genuine 2-tailed quarters found. See the following web page for details : http://varietynickels.com/articles/twotailed.htm
The Yellow-headed Amazon (or Double Yellow-headed Parrot) comes from Mexico and Northern Central America.
