[QUOTE="-jeffB, post: 1028079, member: 27832"]It sounds like I'm the only one who can't find Kennedy rolls! I started hitting banks for halves a few months ago, and I'm hooked. It's just a shame I can't find more of them. I always clean them out, but rarely get many in one place. At a couple of banks, I got maybe $5 or $10 worth, all clad. I figured the tellers were checking them as they came in, and I haven't gone back. At another bank, I got about $10 worth, and I believe 8 of them were 40%. I go back there regularly, but lately they have none at all. At the bank where I have my checking, my first check yielded a roll or so, with I think two or three 40%'ers. Next time I went back, the teller said she only had four, and passed them to me -- 1953, 1942, 1941, and a dateless Walker! That was the end of my luck there, though -- on the next few trips there were none, and when I got into a conversation with one of the tellers, it became clear that he was keeping his own eyes open for silver. Not sure whether he knew about the 40% years, though. Just this week, I visited a local grocery during the quiet early hours, and asked the manager if there were any in the safe.
