Looks like SCOTCH & SODA. It's a magic trick... If it is the quarter is hollow and the "heads" side pops out. It usually comes with a plastic disc that allows you to tap out the center...

Simple question... is it magnetic?

Then it is simply a normal 25c, that someone plated on the obverse side.

Yes. Simple. The mint did not do any selective gold plating until 2003 I believe, and then, it was on the silver dollars and mint report 1-cent.
