These unstamped quarter errors generally sell for a couple dollars.
You have what's called a "flan". It's a coin blank that was put through the machine that puts on the edges, but was accidentally missed when the blanks were fed through the press that strikes images on the front and back. If it's a blank for a modern clad quarter with a copper core (check the edge) it might sell for about $5. However if it's an old silver quarter it could be worth 10 or 12 times that much.
You have what's called a "flan". Flans are created when a coin blank accidentally slips through the Mint without getting put into the press that strikes the design. Assuming the flan is a modern clad blank (look for the copper edge) its value as of mid-2011 is about $5 if it has reeding (ridges) on the edge and a raised rim, and about $10 without those features. If it's an older silver blank, those values go up at least 10 times.
Check with any local coin collector for sure, but this coin can be worth a LOT of money.
If it's so worn that there's no face, reeds (ridges), or detail at all, how do you know it's even a quarter? Assuming it's actually a quarter, for a coin to have so much wear suggests that it's quite old. If that's the case, odds are that it's made of silver, so there's value for that. By weight, it's currently worth around $5.50 for the silver content.
This could happen if two blank planchets got into the press together, causing on to get stamped with only the heads side, and the other to get stamped with only the tails side. This is a relatively rare error, and could be worth $50 to $100 or more. This could also be a normal quarter that somebody has altered. If it weighs significantly less than 5.67 grams, then I would say that it has been altered and has no added value.

...If you can read the date on the penny, it is not an unstamped penny.

A blank for a quarter, commonly referred to as a quarter planchet, is a piece of metal that has not yet been stamped with a design or denomination. The value of a blank is generally determined by its metal content, which is typically around 91.67% copper and 8.33% nickel for quarters. As of recent market values, a blank may be worth a few cents over its intrinsic metal value, but it is not typically collected unless it has unique characteristics or errors.
