What should I do with these? A couple of the rolls have older cents in them. Should I open them to ensure they are all 2017 P? I'd like to save a few but are they worth selling? I can't sell the whole box because about 9 of them have at least 1 older cent in there.

What would you do?

Great find! That is the only time I would be happy getting new cents.

If you were to sell them, you'd need to ensure that they are all actually 2017-Ps.

I'd buy some hard plastic cent tubes, go through all of them and make sets to sell and some to put back.

I would look at them all for errors and varieties as well as any high grade ones. Then you could put the better ones that are left over in coin tubes and try to sell them where ever.

I wonder if ebay would be worth it after fees and shipping. That's a good idea about searching for errors and varieties, I just wouldn't know how to start...other than finding obvious ones. I do know I should be certain that each roll does have all 2017 Ps. Any pointers on what to look for as far as varieties and errors go?

I'd say open them and check for doubled dies and other cool things like clashes and die breaks.

Simple solution. I agree with spruett001.
Carefully, go through these rolls without banging the coins up and fingerprinting the coin surfaces and tube up rolls of 50 2017 P's. Try selling them here to members. I know you would have plenty of customers if you were reasonable and you would make a lot of these guys happy.

It's the right thing to do. Wilfred Brimley

I will go through them and check them out for errors. I will probably hold onto them for now and maybe when I get enough posts, I might offer them to you guys. I'm not sure if I will go the hard plastic coin tube route though. I may just put them in paper tubes as I go through them.

I think this was a pretty good snag from the bank, but at the same time I was looking forward to hopefully finding some wheaties I didn't have yet

I agree with what was given above. I would pick out the best ones and build quality rolls. I believe that there are enough roll collectors out there to make it worth your time.

So take the end roll one I have pictured above. I can already see that one has a small knick and a couple of spots on it. Would I toss that one back into circulation, or would it be worth putting into one of the rolls?
Rest in Peace

If it were me I would toss that one unless it turned out to be a nice error . Keep only the pristine no problem ones .
