hummmmm it should come off with very little might put behind it. i guess you should try a flat head screw driver. Or a power drill with a flat head screw driver peice. (that would be fun:):):)) but just try the screw driver it really shouldnt be that hard.

Take your quarter and hold it in there and then take a pair of plyers to grip the quarter and give you a little more leverage. This happens sometimes to me too if its not been off for a while the oring seazes a bit.

Using a screwdriver will most likely mangle the grooves in the tip. Just do what cphilip suggested. It works well.
