The United States Treasury has announced they are
recalling the new Texas quarters. "We are recalling all
of the new Texas 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."
"We believe the problem lies in a design flaw,"
said Skackelford. The winning design for the Texas
quarter was submitted by Texas A&M student
William Doutrieux.
"Apparently, the duct tape holding the two dimes
and nickel together keeps jamming the coin-operated
devices."
IF THIS IS THE BEST TEXAS CAN DO, GOD HELP US
WHEN THE OKLAHOMA QUARTER COMES OUT -----
25 PENNIES WRAPPED IN BALING WIRE???
