Why A Quarter?
Placing a quarter beside one's snake when taking a photograph seems to be a particularly American folk custom. It is a way of telling others that, after buying a corn snake, a ten-gallon aquarium tank, Four-Paws tank cover, substrate, water bowl, artificial tree branch, plastic hide, temperature and humidity gauges, lamp (optional), and Bill and Kathy Love's book, they too are down to the last quater in their bank account and are as broke as the rest of us.

Thanx
I figured it was for comparing, but I couldn't figure out why it would be a quarter. I agree with Simon that a ruler would be more helpful in showing the length. If u think about it the quarter is not really too helpful and it restricts u to only taking a birds eye view pic in order to compare.
Thanx for the input guys!

Haha.. Gregg! Exactly what I was thinking. Really though, it's for size comparison. Many do use rulers, FYI.

Well a lot humor on this thread.....I'm still laughing. Tonight I need a smile thanks guys! The only way I can get them to sit for a photo is to feed them, the water trick doesn't work for me. And forget about the money, I was holding Merlin on the couch and zooooom right into and under the cushion. I had to cut open the side of the couch and Spencer had to reach in and nudge him out. So you can add the price of a couch to the list of expenses. I was so happy he was ok, I didn't care how much it cost. Sam
