Went to NJ on Monday to visit family and do a little silver hunting for a few hours each day. Managed to score one full roll of 40%ers on the first day and then was lucky yesterday and got a few loose 40%ers and one 1964 Kennedy. Near the end of the run I scored big when a teller had an envelope marked "$30 KENNEDY HALVES." She said she had them "quite a while". When I got out to the car and looked they were all 40%ers. Sixty of them. Some nice 1965's in the bunch. Then the last bank had two mint rolls that were 2005 P and D. One of the tellers at the same bank had two 1987's (P and D) in her tray. Those are key date clad kennedy's. Totals for the trip were: (1)...90%er, (93)...40%ers, Two mint rolls and two 1987's. Not a bad trip at all to my old stomping grounds.
Had some great pizza too! Not a Pizza Hut or a Domino's within 50 miles of where I grew up! They are all "Mom and Pop" style Italian Restaurants. Hope the pictures come out okay.
Happy Hunting everyone

Nice score, but you should have included a picture of the pizza for us down south. There has to 20 + pizza parlors around here and not 1 of them can make a pie.
