I met my parents today to get my share of the processed venison from deer hunting. Just so happens we met in a town with an local casino that still uses coins in about half of their machines (nickels, quarters, and halves).

So after picking up what I was meeting them for, I swung into the casino for a bit to do my first search of the year....

Ended up searching $800 in half dollars and $90 in nickels

The half dollars there rarely produce much, so I don't bother making special trips, but I did end up with...
2 - 40% Kennedy (1967(2))
1 - 2003-P

The nickels only produced some common dates....
22 pre-1960 Jefferson (1941(2), 1946-D, 1948, 1949, 1953-D, 1955-D, 1956-D(5), 1957, 1957-D(3), 1958-D(3), 1959-D(3))

2 Canadian (1983(2))

I have the day off tomorrow and I am thinking road trip.....time to plan my route.... :)

And although I lost a few dollars playing the machines occasionally, I did just well enough at blackjack to leave up $4 or so... :)
