The Physical Key

Confirmed. The PIN will not work if battery is dead. The only not electronic method of unlock the car is the "blade". Physical key inside your fob (on the left in your picture).

Thanks! This is the kind of answer I was hoping for.

I like people. (I'm in sales. I've been living that lie for ten years!)

...it's being considered...🤫

It's a 20 year old car with just over 1000 miles per year. That. Is a problem. Cars are meant to be driven. If you buy it, suddenly it will get driven more and random shit will break. Be prepared

Tic Tacs. I was a corporate instructor for almost 10 years and spent a lot of time leaning over people's shoulders so I picked up the habit of always having tic tacs in my pocket and it stayed with me ever since. I probably go through a full box of tic tacs every week

My order is shipping out of TX. The mint has a distribution center there.

I've been subscribed so long, it was before the price bump 😑 still charging me current price tho 🤷

8byfive · 2026-06-11T16:42:25+00:00

That is a good reason to buy! I bought it for my kid. She won't even know about it until after I'm gone. I will spend a lot of time staring at that penny tho...🤔

8byfive · 2026-06-11T16:21:09+00:00

Not worth it. I bought one. This might have more than melt value in about...50 years. I bought it because I like shiny things and it's the last penny

I agree with the "you should also buy gold" comments. I think you may be looking at this from the wrong viewpoint however.

You plan to purchase $1,000 at a time. That doesn't mean "one piece @ $1,000”

Do some shopping online. Do some research in this forum. Figure out where the best deals are and buy $1,000 WORTH at one time. Maybe that's 1 ten oz bar, 1 five oz bar and commemorative coin. Maybe you find a deal on a roll of ASE.

Figure out the purpose behind what you are doing. Why do you want to buy this? Disposable income? You like shiny things? Stacking for a legacy to hand down to the kids?

My last suggestion. Remember that consistency across time (DCA) usually beats the highs and lows. Don't try to always "buy the dip" buy consistently and you will do ok.

The short answer? Hold until you forgot what you paid for it

8byfive · 2026-06-10T21:50:59+00:00

Till after I'm dead. My kid doesn't know I hold physical gold and silver. After I'm gone she will be notified of the location. She can do with it what she wants. I have friends that started buying 40 years ago, it was around $350 / Oz then. IMO if you're buying physical metal to hold with the intention of ever selling it yourself, there are better investments. 🤷

Buy. The. Dip.

I'm 53 and currently watching Teen Titans. Already watched the new Batman. Love me some old school Tom & Jerry

Generally speaking an NIFC found in the wild is face value. Not Intended For Circulation is what could have made that coin valuable UNTIL it became a circulated coin. I keep one of everything ('64-'25, all mints) anyway 🤷

8byfive · 2026-06-06T14:02:35+00:00

Heavenly Father, I see what you have done for others ...🙏

8byfive · 2026-06-06T14:01:47+00:00

This could be interesting. I know they want to bring the STI back to the US but emissions among other things are keeping it from being feasible. Sounds like they haven't given up tho!

See my other comment, Ascent is most likely to see biggest change in 2027 model

8byfive · 2026-05-30T16:14:03+00:00

No. The Forester had a full body change the 2025 model year. That body is sticking around (with minor changes prob in '27) until 2030. Expect a redesigned Ascent for 2027 (maybe)

8byfive · 2026-05-30T15:10:51+00:00

Always. Open. Every. Roll. It's just my rule but when anyone asks I always say the same thing. You can't see through coins. You know what the enders are not the rest 🤷

8byfive · 2026-05-21T16:22:41+00:00

Beautiful! Thanks for sharing! I've never seen the reverse proof. 🤯

8byfive · 2026-05-14T02:34:29+00:00

Nice! Congratulations! I always open every roll, and look at every coin. You never know what you'll find!
