Genius.

 

makes sense to me.

 

Last year when my wife and I visited the Philadelphia US Mint they were giving these away at the register.. sorry I have no pictures as proof.. no cameras allowed in a Federal Building

But will they fit in the soda machine down the hall?

I think the Onion lies sometimes.

I saw their article on the Mint's "U.S. Counties" quarter series and was really looking forward to getting my own county's coin.

That never friggin' happened...

 

LOVE The Onion

 

It only has to make sense to the mint!

 

You can't fool me...that crème filling is actually zinc!

 

Gallium. Melts in your mouth. And sometimes your hand.

 

Not for me, I think it would take way too long for the quarters to soften in a glass of milk.
