Maybe not right now but what is it going to be worth later on?Depends on how you look at it IMO. If you can afford to hang on to it why not ?

bummer... I just opened and sold a roll of these (2000) to the bank - I had bought a while ago but ebay suggested they didn't sell for much over face. Well, I guess i'll never know if I had that rare variety... i'll just tell myself I didn't!

They could edge up in value, especially if the dollar bill is ever eliminated and more people take note of the dollar coins that are out there. Might as hold on to them for now - they're almost 11 years old already so should have a bit more worth than face value.

I'm sure that curiosity would get the best of me. I would open the roll and look for anything odd or really nice, and keep the best and spend the rest. This is just my opinion, but you would have to wait to long of a time to get any profit or premium from these coins. Spend some just to get the funny looks from the people recieving them.

I have an uncirculated mint roll of 2000 P Sacagawea dollars that I'm not curious enough to open (if anyone is interested). I bought them early in 2000 because they were unique coins, and I just had a feeling that they might be valuable someday for my grandchildren's education. But what I didn't foresee was the economic crisis we are in, or the job-related spinal injury that I sustained in 2004 that made me take an early medical retirement from the fire department. So I would gladly sell them if somebody came up with a $33 offer.

Coppertop, that variety was not found in mint rolls, but in Cheerios packs. As for the value of the 2000 Roll? Not such a big short term upside as they produced a ton of them that year. However, it is the first year of the issue and the coins tarnish like crazy. I'd put them in your basement for ten years and see what happens.

Aye the so called "Cheerios" prototype variety wasn't found in mint rolls.
However, the "Wounded Eagle" variety could very well be in there somewhere. I'd take a peek.
(And a big PS: Welcome to the forum, yarnchief!)

Yeah they cost $35 from the mint when they came out, give or take. They are going for $2-$3 on ebay per coin so if you opened the roll and sold them individually you could get $50-$75.

I just got one of these rolls from my bank last week. I broke it open and kept the best looking coin. Trying to make a buck minus fees on 20 ebay transactions isn't worth the time in my opinion.

Quote: I think these cost $35 from the mint, didn't they? The mint was using these same rolls for the coins they supplied to Wal-mart for the distribution in Jan of 2000. They also made them available to banks at no premium. They literally sent out at least a couple hundred million dollars worth of coins in these rolls. They might have sold them for $35 a roll, but who would buy them when the exact same rolls were available at the bank for face value?

Whenever I travel in the United States I visit banks looking for any mint rolls. Last September, I got 33 rolls of dollar coins at one bank in Vermont ... 5 rolls of 2000 Sacagawea dollars .. the rest were various President dollars ... I usually get $35 to $40 per roll at coin shows in Canada or $2 per coin if I break the rolls.
