The Mint has never made gold quarters. If you have a gold quarter then it has been plated which destroys the numismatic value of the coin. Its value is 25 cents plus the value of the little bit of gold they used to plate it. Some chemicals can cause the quarter to turn different colors. This also does not enhance the value of the coin.
The coin is unlikely to be silver because the only silver State quarters were minted* in San Francisco and sold in special Prestige proof sets. If the coin doesn't display a copper edge it should be examined in person by a numismatic expert, but my guess is that it will turn out to be a plated copper-nickel coin rather than an actual silver quarter. (*) To set things straight, coins are said to be "minted" or "struck". Printing refers to paper and ink.

This coin is part of the US "States Quarter" program started in 1999 and ending in 2008. Each state will be represented with its own quarter in the order of statehood during this time. Unfortunately, your quarter is only worth 25 cents. The saturation of the market by these coins was very large and these coins are everywhere. However, keep this coin in a collection for years and years and you may see the value increase. Many of these coins will eventually end up in circulation and leave the UNC versions as one of a kind at some point.
