What is the value of a 1797 two headed quarter?

It's not a real coin and it's not from 1797. Two-headed (or tailed) coins are called "magician's coins". They're made by cutting two genuine coins in half using jeweler's tools and then swapping the sides. It's considered to be an altered or damaged item with no numismatic value. However no US quarters were minted in 1797 and no modern State Quarters carry that date either, so it's probably not even made from a genuine US coin.

Are there any two headed coins from king George v period know to exist?

I don't believe there are any George V obverse, obverse mule coins known. Generally when it comes to modern milled coinage, it is impossible to fit the dies in a way that there could be 2 obverse dies put in the press. Most 2 headed coins are trick coins made from hollowing out one coin and putting in the other and there are very few genuine 2 headed coins known from any country in the modern era.
