All US Coins are minted in "coin rotation," which means that if you were to hold the coin so that you are looking at the front, and then rotated it 180 degrees around the vertical axis, you would see the back of the coin upside-down. The alternative is "medal rotation," which is the situation in which, if you rotated it 180 degrees around the vertical axis, you would see the back of the coin rightside-up. Many countries issue coins with coin rotation, but equally many do not. Good examples of countries using medal orientation are the UK and all the eurozone countries.

What is the value of a Liberty quarter with the back eagle upside down?

Upside down is relative to which way you flip the coin. If flipping from top to bottom, the eagle should be upright. If flipping from side to side, the eagle should be upside-down. If the eagle is truly upside down from the way it should be, AND the coin has not been altered, then it could be worth a couple of hundred dollars.
