Not sure what you mean - is it shinier than a normal quarter? The thing to look for is the mint mark next to Washington's wig, on the right side of the coin's front.
If it's a P or D, you have an ordinary circulation coin that just happened to be extra-cleanly struck. It's not worth any significant premium.
If you see an S, you have a proof coin that someone removed from its holder and spent. Proof coins have extra-shiny surfaces and stand out very clearly. Unfortunately they lose most of their value if they're removed from their holders. That can happen when someone's kids get into "daddy's extra coins" or a thief steals a set and can't figure out what to do with it. If it is a proof, the good news is that you haven't lost much. Even in its original package a 1981 proof quarter is worth at most a dollar or so.
