We need a weight please, until then it's a cupholder coin, aka environmental damage.

Nominal weight of a US quarter is 5.67 g, so it does not seem that your coin is missing anything.

Based on the normal weight, it's normal — but environmentally stained.

Yes just looks like surface toning to me too--just worth face value.

Environmental issues. For fun, suggest soaking the coin in 100% acetone. If there is any filmy 'crud' on the coin, the acetone might remove or reduce it.
