Found a chunk of silver at the thrift store today.

Well this is what I found. Mexican .925 sterling shot glass set on tray. Tray is about 96 grams and the glass are about 50 grams total. So 146 grams. Any experts give me a quick value on the sterling? It cost me $8.99 with military discount. I would like to sell for a premium because it looks cool but others have sold fairly low. If that's the case , I will hold it with all my other gold and silver for when it all goes up again.

Also found this early eighties attempt at a bmx racer. This is how they did it before all the good parts were created or were affordable. Paid $20. Should be good for $125 -150. It has tuff wheels which are cool. Old Schwinn frame.

If the wheels are 20", you have a Standard sized stingray frame. Anything smaller would be the Scrambler frame. Check for a serial number on the rear dropout or head tube. The dropout marked ones are earlier while head tubes ones generally were done in the 70s. You can find serial number lists online quite easily

It would be worth more parted out since it's already a parts bike

I usually part things out but I don't think this one would be worth parting. The wheels are selling for about 50-75. No good names on the rest of the parts except the chain ring. It's a tuff-neck. Hoping for the nostalgia sale on the whole thing. And preferring local. I hate boxing up bikes. Unless they are $500 and up.

If it were I, the silver would be stashed away. It may be down now, but its always easy to turn to cash anytime you want.
