I came across a 2004 Michigan State Commemorative quarter with a "gold" finish in a bank roll of quarters. Any info on this would be appreciated. Is it from a mint set or possibly an error?

Two possibilities.  One it may have just toned, or second it has been gold plated.    Toning is just something that can happen naturally, typically no value.  As for the gold plating, the TV coin sellers have gold plated tens or possibly even hundreds of thousands of sets of state quarters and sold them for ridiculous prices.  When people try to "cash in " on their purchases they learn they are worth 25 cents and a great many of them eventually get dumped into circulation.
