A "quarter with two tails" or a "quarter with two heads" generally describes a novelty item known as a "Magician's Coin". These are made by altering two normal coins and gluing the two pieces back together to give the coin the appearance of having two "tails" sides or two "heads" sides. Usually, evidence of the alteration can be seen by using a magnifier and examining the area just inside the raised rim on one side of the coin or the other. You should find a seam where the altered parts come together on one side of the coin. With today's precise machinery, you will need to use a magnifier to see the seam. These novelty items sell regularly on eBay.com for a couple dollars apiece.
