Not gold, and not proof. All proof coins dated 2000 were minted in San Francisco, and the US never struck gold quarters. You almost certainly have a normal Philadelphia quarter that's been plated with a thin layer of gold. The plating makes it an altered coin with no added value.
It's a novelty item worth couple of cents for the gold plating plus whatever the underlying quarter is worth. If the quarter is copper-nickel, then it's only worth a quarter. If it's a special silver "prestige" quarter made in San Francisco it's at least worth maybe $3.50 for its metal content.
It is only worth 25 cents and in no longer spendable.
Not much about 25 cents worth it's plated.
25 cents if the quarter was made in 1965 or later. Gold plating really adds nothing to the value of a coin and is considered to be damage to a collector. While interesting, the amount of gold used in gold plating is too small to be stripped off and sold and make a profit. However, if the quarter is dated 1964 or earlier, it is a 90% silver quarter and is worth about $6.25 for the silver content in the quarter, but the gold adds nothing to the value.
The coin is a Sacagawea dollar, it has no gold and is worth $1.00

I hope you know the coin is not gold, just gold colored. Unless it's a proof coin it's only worth a dollar.
July 24, 2009 Gold plating a coin destroys its numismatic value. The Bicentennial quarter is worth but a quarter plus the value of the bit of gold used to plate it.

A Quarter Krugerrand is worth about $300.
What you have is a regular quarter that someone (NOT the U.S. Mint) gold plated.
A plain 2000 Sacagawea dollar is worth about $1–$4, but the rare 2000‑P mule error—with a quarter obverse and dollar reverse—has fetched $100,000–$150,000+, and one sold for $2.1 million in 2025. Ordinary 2007–2008 Presidential dollars (uncirculated) are typically valued at $2–$5 (around $4–$6 in mint state), while gold‑layered proof editions sell for $10–$40 depending on the set.
No, they are worth no more than the metal (or face) value of the coin, the gold plating adds so little gold that it would cost more to de-plate the coin than the gold is worth. For example, a 1965 gold plated half dollar would be worth ~$4.50 in silver scrap just like a normal 1965 half dollar. A 2002 gold plated quarter would be worth just a quarter, just like a normal 2002 quarter.
A 2000 American Eagle five dollar gold coin with a mint mark of "S" or "W" is worth in a MS 65: $110; if the "W" coin is in proof condition (PF65), the value is: $125.
