The term commonly used for such coins is 'circulation cameo'.
This is when coins such as yours have dark surfaces but the high points of the design have later worn to expose lighter colored surfaces.
There is a long running CCF thread devoted to showing such coins - and yours would fit in nicely albeit not as strong as cameo as others.
Perhaps a Moderator can add a link to that thread so you can see for yourself how your quarter fits in.

Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art
Too many hobbies .... too much work .... not enough time.
