Good trip back to the 'rents

I was back at the parents for the holiday, and hit the local banks on Friday. Halves were much more available then they are around here. Went into many banks, some didn't have any, some had lots, but I managed to pick up $330 total in rolls. Could have got more if I had more cash. Total haul was 4-40% and 1-90%. The funny thing was I got 4 of those from the rolls that the teller told me there was no silver in them. :) Next trip I'll take a bigger amount of $$$ and hit every bank around.
Here's a pic.

I can't believe tellers will flat our lie like that!! I have been told that several times and stupid me, I believed them and left the half dollars there.

i can't tell you how many times i've been told there was no silver and found some 40%ers anyway....some people either don't know or don't consider them to be silver...i pick up all halfs no matter what
