25 cents. It should be easy to find them in pocket change. The reason the coin doesn't have a mint mark is that up till 1979, when quarters were minted in Philadelphia, they didn't put a P mint mark on it. Your quarter is from Philadelphia and is not an error.
1979
It was minted in Philadelphia. Philadelphia quarters dated 1979 and earlier do not have a mint mark.
Without knowing the date or condition of the coin, the best estimate anyone can give is that it's worth 1⁄4 the current spot price of silver, or just over $3.50 as of this writing.Of course, you '''could''' always spend it as a quarter, in which case it would be worth 25¢ ... but, unless it's a Washington quarter, that's probably not the best way to handle it.This assumes a United States quarter, of course.AnswerIt depends on its date and mint mark (if any). At a minimum, the silver would be worth about $3 in scrap value, but if the coin has any collector's value it could be worth much more. Please post a new question with the coin's date and what mint mark it has, if any. On a Washington quarter, the mint mark will be a small S or D above the ER in "QUARTER".If it's a Standing Liberty quarter, the mint mark will be on the front of the coin to the left of and slightly above the date.Coins made in Philadelphia before 1979/80 don't carry mint marks, so don't be concerned if your coin doesn't seem to have one.US quarters made in 1964 and before have a silver value of about $5.13 as of today.They may have a higher value to a collector depending on their date and mint mark.
The coin was struck over a 1941 Canadian quarter. It takes a keen eye to see the print of the Canadian coin on the American coin. A 1941 Canadian quarter was made of silver and the American quart was a clad coin (copper line in the reeded edge). So, it would seem finding silver 1970-D (no copper line) would be easier to see than the faint imprint of the Canadian quarter.

Unless it's in uncirculated or proof condition, there should be nothing to distinguish it from the hundreds of millions of 1979 quarters in circulation, and it has no extra value.
It's a common circulation coin worth face value only.
If you found it in change, it's 25 cents. The retail value of a single proof is about a dollar.
Please check again. There are no coins with those date combinations. You presumably have a Bicentennial quarter - its dates will be 1776 - 1976.
It is worth face value unless it is uncirculated then it will be worth around 50 cents.
You have a very common error called a "filled die" error. It happens when grease or other crud gets into one of the little recesses in a coin die that forms the letters and numbers.Unless the number is entirely missing, it's unlikely to be worth more than a small amount above face value, if that.
25 cents.
I have a 1979 Quater with a filled in key letter (D) LOOK LIKE IT MAY BE A ERROR, IS IT WORTH ANY THING/ Worth saveing. has any one else got one of these Quaters?Answer1. QUARTER, just like it's spelled on the coin2. MINT MARK, not "key letter"3. SAVING, not "saveing"Now that we're past basic spelling and terminology, you have a very common error called a filled die error. It happens when a bit of grease or crud gets into the little recesses on a die that form the letters and numbers when a coin is struck. Filled die errors are quite common, especially on older coins that used a smaller mint mark than current issues. They're interesting but are rarely worth much more than face value.
25 cents
25¢, like nearly every quarter minted since 1965.
