Given the pics posted--and no other information provided--I'd say your quarter is worth 25 cents. Are you seeing something unique with your coin?

 It looks like a normal quarter to me, don't think you would get more than a quarter for it if you sold it. Unless you see something I don't on these tiny images.

In the past, a 56-year-old coin would have been an awesome find; these days, mintages have been so high and coins have been made of junk for so long that that's no longer the case, sadly.

I don't understand the question... That's a F-VF or so condition of a very common-date quarter. Worth exactly a quarter.

Maybe a person considered the coin too old and decided that it was rare and valuable? But I'm not a psychic to read other people's thoughts.

1-hit wonder, but...
Shumba1 although it's old, it has no special, numismatic value.
In 1965 the US converted from Silver to the current Copper-Nickel clad coinage. 1964 and earlier have value because of their silver content.
To replace all of the silver coins in circulation, the mint produced billions of coins in 1965, 1966, and 1967. (1.8b, 821m, and 1.5b respectively). Even today they aren't uncommon to find in circulation.

Shumba, if you can find someone who would buy it from you for enough money to make it worth your time and effort, sure, why not?
As everyone else has said, it's not worth anything above face value. You may want to be upfront about that with your prospective buyer.

 to Community, Age of a coin does not always bring extra premium, yours seem like an ordinary well circulated Quarter which as previously mentioned holds just the face value.

I would keep it because it's my birth year. That's the only reason.
Spend it
