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.

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.
