ALABAMA QUARTERS

Recommended Posts

The United States Treasury has announced they are recalling the new Alabama quarters.

"We are recalling all of the new Alabama quarters that were recently issued," Treasury Undersecretary Russell Shackelford said in a press conference Monday. "This comes in the wake of numerous reports to this agency that the quarters will not work in parking meters, toll booths, vending machines, pay phones, or other coin-operated devices."

The winning design for the Alabama quarter was submitted by a student at the University of Alabama.

"We believe the problem lies in a design flaw," said Shackelford.

"Apparently, the duct tape holding the two dimes and nickel together keeps jamming the coin-operated devices."
