Advice Needed: Should I open my roll of Trump Dollars?

I received my roll of Trump Dollars today, the box was dated August 12th. Are the rolls worth more unopened, or should I look for the privy marks?
Thanks!

I had four rolls. Three had no privies, one had two.
If you are trying to maximize your returns then I'd consider selling the roll unopened.
JBK, what was the date on your box?
I opened two bags and 1 roll. Zero privies. My last roll arrived yesterday and I believe the lotto has ended, so keeping my last roll sealed.
I don't know offhand, but I posted the dates on the other thread about the hunt for the privies.
I am not sure that anything has been established about the dates. My two bags were later dates and had several privies each.
Same dilema here: Customers of mine got there bags early, several contained 3-8 coins per bag, 2 customers had rolls, 1 had 1, other had 2. I opened my bag that came a week later, not a single coin I was peeved. Just sold it opened on ebay an hour later. I have not opened the roll, still sealed in box, due to a later shipment, leaving it sealed for later selling. If your bag was an early arrival, there seem to be better results than later delivery bags, based on what I have heard.
the sealed stuff seems to be selling well, I listed my open bag I just opened and mentioned about not recieving a single privy, and it still sold for like 183.00
Crack ‘em open and spend away!

Dates do not correlate to privy count, as mentioned many times. It's literally the luck of the draw, and nothing else.

Give them out for Halloween 🎃
Doesn't matter. People have to obsessively ask anyway.
One of my sisters once said to me : “…never should on yourself ”. So that’s my stance. If you have: sell. If you want: buy. Somebody out there got shut out at the mint. They’d like an opportunity.

That depends...
How close are you to the kitchen sink and whether the garbage disposal is running?
Good luck in your numismatic pursuits,

That's pretty much my thought. Personally, I'd just dump them down the gutter. No sense ruining a perfectly good garbage disposal. RGDS!

You could practice your Art skills and colorize them before you return them to the wild.
Open it.
Great idea! But only give them out to the little ghouls who promise to not TP your house. Have some Sacs on hand for those who don't want a Trump dollar.

I opened two bags and received 4 privy's total. just sent to PCGS for grading. I'm not opening my rolls. One shows the obverse and reverse, and the other roll shows both obverse. I feel like the rolls are more valuable sealed.
Questionable color. More orange is called for.

Got the hair color wrong, too.............
I just read that trump changes up his hair color now about every two weeks.
Was that wrong AI information?
My first attempt didn't look bad.
Speaking of 47…. That’s how many years it’s taken me to find a near date variety of this dollar coin, which was released the same year I finished my first tour in the military.
Jimmy Carter was president and the Iranians took American (52 IIRC) hostages for 444 days. As soon as Reagan was sworn in (1980) , the hostages were released.
Just some perspective on how the dollar’s changed.
One thing is for certain: Ugly has a measuring stick

rte still has the hair color wrong, although his latest attempt's hair color could be used for his facial tint.............. Third time's a charm!
That would be too scary!
Friday I opened a roll dated 7-29-26 and it had 4 privy's in it.

Have any such dollar coins been released into the banking system at face value yet?
Imagine what DCarr will overstrike on these.
Paper money eventually returns to its intrinsic value. Zero. Voltaire. Ebay coinbowlllc
Open it.
U.S. Treasurer Brandon Beach announced that rolls of the Trump dollar coins are expected to become widely available through local banks in November 2026.
Halloween is just around the corner, though you would run the risk of your house getting egged.
Thank you.
