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.

A 2002 Louisiana quarter, part of the 50 State Quarters program, typically has a face value of 25 cents. However, its collectible value can vary depending on its condition and any unique characteristics, such as being uncirculated or having errors.

For specific valuation, it’s best to consult a coin dealer or a numismatic guide.
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.

(*) To set things straight, coins are said to be "minted" or "struck". Printing refers to paper and ink.

For an accurate appraisal, it's best to consult a coin dealer or check recent auction prices.
