Maybe a quarter was all the crow had, and the human took it as partial payment.

Yeah I doubt the crow would understand the various values of coins, let alone why a taco costs 2 coins when before it cost 1.

I’m reminded of the photo meme that goes around where a dog buys something like a hotdog every day, paying with a leaf

Obviously, the thing he’s buying costs more than a leaf, but the people who work there are just kind of “he’s trying to pay, but doesn’t understand what money is. Give him the hotdog”.
