Description:

This collectible phone card features the charming "Quarter Bears™," a whimsical line of teddy bears inspired by historic U.S. coinage. The background is a rich purple hue, providing a striking contrast that highlights the bears and accompanying elements. At the center, two plush teddy bears are prominently displayed, each seemingly holding or showcasing a quarter embedded within their midsection or paw. The bear on the left faces forward, showcasing a soft, light brown plush body. It wears a purple sweatshirt embroidered with "VIRGINIA 1788" and the number "10," connecting the bear to historical and collectible themes. A small American flag patch adorns its left foot, emphasizing its patriotic motif. Next to this bear, another is shown from the back, featuring a patch sewn onto its back that resembles the Virginia state flag, further reinforcing the state-specific theme of this collectible.

The overall theme pays homage to the quarter coin issued in 2000 as part of the U.S. Mint’s 50 State Quarters program. The quarter bears the inscription "VIRGINIA 1788," marking Virginia’s statehood year, and features a detailed depiction of the ship "Susan Constant," a symbol tied to the founding of Jamestown. This historical imagery on both the bear and the quarter underscores the card’s dual purpose: celebrating collectibles and educating about American heritage. Adjacent to the bears, a silver-colored quarter inset mirrors the coin that inspired the "Quarter Bears," serving as a tangible reminder of its collectible roots.

The typography on the card is clear and purposeful. "QUARTER BEARS™" is prominently displayed at the top in a white serif font, evoking a sense of tradition and authenticity. Beneath it, "Virginia 1788" is written in a slightly italicized font, emphasizing historical significance. The card explicitly identifies itself as a "COMMERCIAL PREPAID PHONE CARD," highlighting its practical use beyond mere collection. Fine print at the bottom notes that it is a "5-minute AT&T Phone Card," valid within the U.S., Canada, and the Caribbean, with a reminder that rates may vary—a common feature of prepaid calling cards. The AT&T logo, in blue and white, anchors the card’s modern telecommunications function, contrasting with the nostalgic theme of the Quarter Bears.

On the back of the card, the layout follows standard prepaid calling card design. A vertical magnetic stripe runs across the top for card reader access. Below, printed instructions and terms detail how to use the card for placing calls. A customer service number is provided for assistance, along with notes about the card’s validity and limitations. The background here is simpler—likely a pale blue or white—designed for clarity and ease of reading. This functional side ensures usability while discreetly maintaining the brand identity with small logos or trademarks. Overall, the back complements the collectible front by providing the essential framework for making calls, balancing the card’s decorative appeal with practical utility.
