The last silver quarters were dated 1964. All circulating quarters dated 1965 and later are made of copper-nickel, not silver. The only silver quarters minted since 1965 have been made for special collectors' proof sets, and they were first made in 1992.
All 1984 quarters were made of cupro-nickel and have no added value.
Silver quarter production was resumed in 1992 but these coins were only made for collectors and investors, not for circulation.

You don't have a pure silver quarter as the US has never minted a pure silver (99.9% pure or higher) silver quarter. Instead what you have is a 90% silver quarter which would be dated 1964 or prior. The value depends on a number of factors including the date, the mintmark and the condition. But a silver quarter is worth $5-6 in scrap silver regardless of type or condition, however some quarters can be worth significantly more.
