    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.
