There's never been a gold quarter. What you have is a novelty piece made by putting a thin plating of gold (or a golden-colored metal) on a regular quarter. They're sold at inflated prices as "collectibles" on TV and in the backs of some magazines.
Some novelty collectors will pay extra for a full set of plated state quarters in the original packaging from the TV or magazine offer. By itself it's considered to be an altered coin and has no interest to coin collectors.
The Mint has never made gold quarters. If you have a gold quarter then it has been plated which destroys the numismatic value of the coin. Its value is 25 cents plus the value of the little bit of gold they used to plate it. Some chemicals can cause the quarter to turn different colors. This also does not enhance the value of the coin.
The US Mint did not issue any gold State Quarters. If you have one it ihas either been gold plated by someone other than the mint or it has simply tarnished to a golden hue. Gold plated coins are not worth anymore than the metal used to make them. A quarter that has tarnished to a golden hue may have some value to those who collect tarnished coins. Numismatically it has a value of a quarter unless it is in one of the ultra high uncirculated grades.
Value depends on what kind of error. please be more specific
The US never made gold quarters. What you have is a regular cupronickel quarter that was plated for one of those "special collectibles" sets sold on TV and in the backs of popular magazines. The coins underneath are worth exactly a quarter, the gold plating is worth only a few cents, the package is a couple of bucks.

Twenty five cents.
Gold plated coins are novelty coins with no collectible value and are not made by the US Mint.
Many private companies sell gold-plated US coins. They have no added numismatic value because they are considered to be altered coins. However there are niche collectors who will pay a premium for these items if in their original containers.
It may have been plated with gold but it adds nothing to the value of the coin.
Gold-plated but not gold. For one thing, a gold quarter would be worth hundreds of dollars so it would be foolish for them to be put in circulation. The gold adds nothing to the coin's worth and would in fact cost more than its value to remove.

A 1999 P US quarter is worth a book value of $0.30. No one will pay you more than 25 cents for this coin though since they are so common. My advice is to save the D quarters from the state years. These are not as common as a P coin.
