Ya need to upload the pic correctly if you want help. I'm not opening a .zip file here.
 
sorry fixed
 
That, I believe, is called a "proof" quarter. A "p" mint mark with a high shine. Usually found in proof sets from the mint but can get separated and thrown into the wild.
 
Is it a 2000 Massachusetts quarter?
 
Without weighing it, Looks like a Plated quarter, explains the edge reeding being solid color but a mintmark of P..
Novelty item but something different

I believe it's the platinum one, at first I thought it was a Canadian quarter because rim checking it looked the same. So I was very suprised to pull this
 
Either just a common clad coin with its own cladding covering the reeded edge, or after market plating.
 
That's a plated quarter. Final answer

Seconding Walrus, Loose Change and Zomotion. Nothing special, just a regular quarter plated in silver or some other shiny metal.
 
Then let me say that if you believe it is just a plated quarter I will give you a quarter to send it to me.......
 
It's a plated quarter.
