What you have is most likely a "lamination error". If so, it could retail for about $10 but it would need to be evaluated in person by a dealer or appraiser who works with error coins.
Current US dimes, quarters, and half dollars have two outer layers of cupronickel cladding* bonded to a copper core. Blanks for the coins are punched out of large rolls of metal stock. Sometimes the ends of the rolls aren't properly clad and one or both sides may be missing from the copper core.
* "Plating" is normally a thin coat of metal applied electrically or chemically in a liquid bath. Cladding for coins is much thicker and is bonded mechanically.

25 cents if the quarter was made in 1965 or later. Gold plating really adds nothing to the value of a coin and is considered to be damage to a collector. While interesting, the amount of gold used in gold plating is too small to be stripped off and sold and make a profit. However, if the quarter is dated 1964 or earlier, it is a 90% silver quarter and is worth about $6.25 for the silver content in the quarter, but the gold adds nothing to the value.
