MINNESOTA QUARTERS ALERT
(IMPORTANT)
Hang on to any of the new Minnesota Quarters you may acquire.
They
may be worth MUCH MORE than 25
cents!
The US Mint announced today that it is recalling all of
the
Minnesota quarters that are part of its program featuring quarters
from each state.
This action is being taken after numerous reports
that the new
quarters will not work in parking meters, toll booths,
vending machines, pay
phones or any other coin-operated
devices.
The problem lies in the unique makeup of the Minnesota
quarter,
which was designed by a couple of Norwegian specialists,
Sven and Ole.
Apparently the duct tape holding the two dimes and
the nickel together
keeps jamming up the
machines.
