Liberty is standing, not just her head, LOL!
Please post a new question with the coin's date and whether there is a small S or D on the left hand pedestal near her feet.
If the coin's date is worn off (a common problem with SLQ's) it's worth its silver content, about $2.00-2.50
With no mint mark or an "S" near the date, this coin is worth about $6 in average condition. If it has a "D" it's worth about twice as much. FWIW, the coin is called a Standing Liberty quarter. Most days, heads don't walk, LOL!
Liberty head quarters, more frequently called Barber quarters after their designer, were minted from 1892 to 1916. If your coin is dated 1925 it's called a Standing Liberty quarter because as you can tell from the image, it shows all of Miss Liberty, not just her head. Please see the Related Question for more.
To clear things up:> It's a Standing Liberty quarter. The Walking Liberty design was used on half dollars.> M is the initial of the designer, H. A. MacNiel. The mint mark position is on the opposite pillar next to Miss Liberty's foot.> A "walking head" would be pretty interesting, though anatomically impossible....Please see the Related Question.
You would have a Barber or Liberty Head Quarter. It would be about 8-800 dollars as all depending on condition. Congrats
8-21-11>>> Your numismatic terminology is a little mixed up. The only standing coin is the Standing Liberty quarter from 1916 to 1930 and Mercury refers to Mercury Head dimes from 1916 to 1945. A US half dollar dated 1941 is a Walking Liberty half, these were made from 1916 to 1947. 1941 is a common date with a average value of $17.00 for most circulated coins.

It's the head of Miss Liberty.
QUARTER, not "quater" - just like it's spelled on the back of the coin.Not Liberty Head, either. The last Liberty Head quarters were made in 1916.Please check again and post a new question.
Two types of quarters were made in 1916. The most common type is called a "Barber" quarter after its designer Charles Barber. This design has Miss Liberty's head on the front and a spread-winged eagle on the back. The other design is called a Standing Liberty quarter and is much scarcer. Its design features a full-length image of Miss Liberty on the front and a flying eagle on the back. Any such coins should be inspected by an expert to ensure they're genuine. There's more information at the Related Questions.
Not enough information. Is the date missing due to wear? If so, is the coin a Washington quarter or does it have an older design - Liberty standing on the front and a flying eagle on the back, or the head of Liberty on the front and a spread-eagle on the back? If it's a Washington quarter, look at the edge. If it shows copper then it's a modern quarter and is worth only 25 cents. If the edge is silver colored or it's one of the earlier designs you have a 90% silver coin that might sell for $2.50 or $3 for its metal content.
You need to be more specific. The Liberty head design was used for decades and was struck at several mints. Please post a new question with the coin's date, whether there is a mint mark on the back side, and a description of how worn it is.The highest value these quarters can reach $85, and at least $15.
