Look on the back of the coin to see if there's a small mint mark letter below the eagle. It may be blank or there may be an O or S.

Numismedia lists the following approximate retail values as of 02/2012:

No mint mark (Philadelphia):

Very worn condition - $12

Moderately worn - $24

Slightly worn - $38

Almost no wear - $165

Uncirculated - $270 to $9,690 depending on quality

"O" mint mark (New Orleans):

Very worn - $21

Moderately worn - $121

Slightly worn - $312

Almost no wear - $778

Uncirculated - $1,110 to $42,250

"S" mint mark (San Francisco):

Very worn - $960

Moderately worn - $1,980

Slightly worn - $3,030

Almost no wear - $5,556

These coins are usually called Barber quarters after their designer, Charles Barber.

DISCLAIMER: The retail values quoted are the best available as of the date shown, but may vary significantly due to changes in the precious metals market. Also the wholesale (buying) price of a coin will be less than the selling (retail) price. A reputable coin dealer will be able to give a more accurate valuation based on inspection of the coin.
