| Obverse description | Draped bust of George Washington in left-facing profile occupies the central field, closely modeled after the standard Washington quarter effigy. The legend UNITED STATES OF AMERICA arcs along the upper periphery, while LIBERTY appears in the left field and the motto IN GOD WE TRUST is inscribed in three lines in the right field. The humorous legend HEAD QUARTERS curves along the lower periphery in bold relief, replacing the standard denomination inscription. |

| Reverse description | Central device depicts an upright rat wearing a turban, rendered in detailed relief and holding what appears to be a book or documents in its forepaws, presented in a satirical anthropomorphic style. The legend TALABAMA arcs prominently along the upper periphery. To the left of the central device, a three-line inscription reads RATTUS / ERECTUS / TALIBANUS in the field. The date 2009 appears in the exergue above the motto E PLURIBUS UNUM, which curves along the lower rim. |
