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

Sounds like you did great! Maybe nobody has ever hit NJ. lol
 
Nice find. If you don't want them all I'll take some
 
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.
 
Where is the pizza? :icon_scratch:
 
very nice score! wow! dreamish score!
but, i just wonder why the teller put "KENNEDY halves", odd, makes me wonder if she pulled out all of the bens, walkers, and barbers :laughing9:
nice job, keep it up and hh!
