Did a mega road trip on Friday. Had to drive almost 100 miles just to get to an area I haven't hunted yet, and it's an area I will be back to soon ;D One town in particular has 10+ banks, and I don't think anybody has ever hunted there before. Nearly every single bank had halves in the trays and in rolls, and some had been there for more than a year apparently. Even better, I scored at least 1 40% from almost every bank I went to.

My best score of the day came from a bank that had just 2 rolls. When I got to my car and opened them, I nearly fainted. They were both SOLID silver! All 40%s, but hey, I'll take them! Words can't describe that feeling you get when you open a roll and see only silver. Here's my totals for the trip:

[4] 1964
[2] 1965
[2] 1966
[24] 1967
[11] 1968
[9] 1969

A total of 52 silver halves, a good start to 2011 :headbang:

I think I might have even yelped a little too, don't really remember because my head was spinning so much. I think I'm addicted :laughing7: That silver is still out there, you just have to go get it!

And welcome to the forum zas667! :thumbsup:
