1944 is considered to be a common date for Washington quarters. Like all quarters up to 1964 they were made of an alloy of 90% silver and 10% copper. In circulated condition their value is pretty much determined by the current price of silver. As of 01/2009 average retail prices are in the $3 range.

The most valuable 1944 quarter has a D mint mark and is still very common. Uncirculated ones can sell for about $15, not enough to pay the mortgage.

Are any quarters made in 1980 s have any value other than a quarter?

Unfortunately not. The quarters you are thinking of are most likely the 1932-1964 Washington head quarters. These quarters were minted using approximately 90% silver and 10% copper. The overall weight of the coin is about 6.25 grams therefore using todays silver price ($17.25 USD/oz.) theoretically the coin has a melt value close to $3.15USD. Finding these quarters still in circulation is rare and depending on the condition of the coin, you may have better luck selling it to a collector rather than trying to sell the coin for its melt value.
