If it's silver it's worth a couple bucks.

It's worth around $5 to $6 in excellent condition, but only $3 or $4 in circulated condition as a collector coin, around $2.75 in silver content/melt value.

The coin in 40% silver and 60% copper.

If it is a silver proof, you may have a nice find!
The value of a 1976 bicentennial silver quarter depends on its condition and whether it is a proof specimen or a 40% silver Bicentennial quarter. The silver melt value for this coin is $1.69 as of June 27, 2023. The 1776-1976 S silver quarter is worth around $5 in uncirculated condition with a grade of MS 63. The average value of a 1976-P Bicentennial quarter at MS65 is around $28, but examples in perfect condition can fetch much higher prices. The auction record for a 1976 Quarter, PF70, Ultra Cameo was $1,199.99 in 2022.

Cool I found 2 silver bi-centennial halves that probably came from Grandpa's proof set while coin roll hunting, put the best one in a plastic coin holder and gave it to my Daughter as that is her birth year.
