Picked these two up at a yard sale

All together for $50. I went to local coin shop to get both check out just in case it was fake silver but turns out, it’s real silver.

The Mickey Mouse lucky was .5 oz .999 pure silver.
The 2007 American Silver Eagle uncirculated is 1 oz of .999 pure silver.

I gave my local coin shop a chance. I essentially traded 21 40% silver Kennedy half dollar for 16 90% silver quarters and 9 90% dimes.

I underestimated how hard to sell these 40% half dollar. I called several coin shops near by, some don’t want any 40% silvers at all and some only gives $2-$4 per half dollar coin. I think this is the best outcome.

Don’t think I did too bad, I underestimated of how hard to sell the 40% half dollars.

Went to a nearby bank to get a roll of quarters to pay the parking meter. I think I have used up all my luck for the rest of the year.

28/40 is pre 1964 90% silver quarter, 1/40 is 2026 quarter the mayflower one I believe. What are the odds?

Got the last one of enhance uncirculated eagle and apron proof in US Mint DC coin gift shop

If you have you missed on an eagle, you can visit US Mint coin gift shop if you are near by or don’t mind driving. They may sold out online but the gift shop might have it.

Got this roll of half dollars from my friend who have no idea what he just gave me.

Got this roll for face value from my friend. Good thing he’s clueless about coins. All 40% silver half dollars.

Update: I did returned the roll and talked to his dad about this. I knew his dad has been collecting coin for awhile and that it was his not son. I offered to buy it a little above market value. They both accepted the deal. I couldn’t sleep getting away with it anyway.

When your friend doesn’t know the value of of certain coins. Roll of 40% silver half dollars.

I got the roll off my friend for face value. Didn’t think they were all 40% silver half dollars. I don’t think I will mention this to him 😅.

Pilot Steerling Silver Rollerball pen Dragon edition

I bought this pen many years ago and forgot about it until I was going through my stuff searching for silver. Pretty sure I bought this for $100 back then.

Just getting into collecting silver. Any tips?

I found a quarter the other day and it was from 1949, a half dollar from 1962 as well. I bought the silver bar from Costco. Hopefully I can get more of the silver coins or anything. Any tips you recommend doing or places you go to?

2019 4Runner ORP with 165k miles on it 5th Gen. Second opinion on the timing cover

I know that the leaking timing cover on the 4.0 V6 is a common issue and that most people will wait until the oil starts the drip on the ground and then repair it. I asked my specialist about this and he said there’s no leaks yet.
I just want to get a second opinion from you guys/gals.
Is the leaking timing cover always going to happen regardless or you can prevent by doing regular (5k or earlier oil changes)?

Which one did more damage in terms of career and reputational wise if George were to finished behind Max or last year Oscar finishing behind Max in the final standing?

Last year we saw Oscar finished 3rd in a two horse race. Although he received some well deserved criticisms for his slump, he got some excuses as this is his first time going for the title and that the team made some critical errors. Do you think Russel will get the same treatment or worse if he were to finish behind Max in the find standings?
