I just opened my "new" box of small Dollars. To my surprise, every roll appears to contain gem Presidential dollars, mostly MVB. Unfortunately, they are not wrapped in US mint rolls. I don't have the heart to touch them since they look brand new (untouched). What would you? Would you open the rolls to search them, dump them, or hold onto them untouched?

There might be ones with missing or double edge lettering. I spend them on Project $100K
Rest in Peace

That means they are straight oughta da bag to yo' doorstep. A whole lotta dough to "invest in a very "iffy" future return IMHO. I dumped what little I had after seeing those I got in rools from the bank in similar way start turning. Seems unless those buggers are entombed in plastic, they're worthless. That's the $64,000 question, do you go through a box like this like the big boys looking for the better than MS68's to mass submit or just return it and not waste the time and effort. They look first outta the bag, so maybe not a lot of jostling when on in distribution to and from Fed.

Why not go through them? It would be fun and maybe you could find some interesting errors or pristine coins. There's no loss since they are all worth at least $1.

If you don't feel like it, you can always send them my way and I'll check.

I'll probably do a quick pass then dump them. BTW, are US Mint rolls labeled with the president's name worth keeping? I've picked up a few US Mint Presidential dollar rolls and some Mint early sac dollar rolls (2000-2002).

Hopefully, an expert will speak, but I think all circulating coins leave the mint in bags. The rolling is done by a third party, and that may mean they have been searched a little. Don't quote me on that

The mint ships coins in Ballistic Bags that hold tons at a time to a armored car service like Brinks. Brinks does not search them.They count and roll them.I would search them for errors and varieties as well as any higher grade ones.

Search them! Otherwise, why bother getting the box?

Then spend the rejects as Fuzzy suggested.

These coins are notorious for bag marks. It is not easy to find a truly problem free gem. Some of the more recent ones are much lower mintage than the early ones. I would carefully open the tubes, look through them for plain edges, then look for the nicest 25 coins out of the whole bunch. Put those in 2x2's.
Roll up the rest in the wrappers you saved ( or get new ones ) and take the $975. 00 to the bank and make a deposit in your checking account.
Rest in Peace

As I've said before, we need an emoji of a crazed maniac shredding through rolls with paper flying everywhere.

I recently bought $1550 worth of small dollar coins in US Mint rolls from a bank. The rolls included a variety of presidential, 2014P and D, 2015P and D (relatively low mintage), and 2016P and D (relatively low mintage). I managed to locally sell a few $25 rolls for $30 each, but no bites on ebay when priced for a similar net ($5) profit.

I am also wondering whether or not I should simply deposit the remaining $1K+ dollars worth of these US Mint rolls. I don't need the money, so maybe I'll hold onto them for awhile longer...

Man2004, best of luck with your decision!

I do not think it would hurt to hold on for a bit.
