I'm not sure about quarters in particular.
I do know that the British 1 and 2 pence coins used to be made of copper, a non-magnetic element. However recently the price of copper rose so much that the 1 and 2 pence cions were worth more than 1 or 2p. To remedy the situation the coins are now made of copper-plated steel. Steel is magnetic, hence the coins are.
In short I would guess it is because some quarters are made of magnetic metals like steel and nickel whereas other are not.

Is the coin quarter magnetic?
Coins made of steel, iron or nickel would normally be magnetic. Exceptions are alloys, where the exact composition determines whether the charges of the atoms align (there are magnetic and non-magnetic variants of stainless steel).During World War II, US pennies were made of zinc-plated steel, and hence were magnetic. US nickels (5 cents) are 75% copper and 25% nickel, and are not magnetic, and neither are the "clad" copper-sandwich coins or the "gold" dollar coins (which are brass).Canadian nickels have been made of magnetic alloys several times, most recently 99% nickel from 1954 to 1981, and coated steel since 2000. From 1982 to 1999, Canada used the same copper-nickel alloy that US nickels are made of.

They are arranged randomly so ultimate magnetic effect is zero. But in some material they do not cancel and have some +ve or -ve value.
