Unopened roll of 1957 D Pennies?

[Quinc]

Was gifted this roll of pennies from a woman who retired from banking decades ago. She believes it's in the original roll from the mint and has never opened. Wanted to see if y'all think it's worth opening or leaving it alone?

I would guess original from "The Fed" as the tellers call everything machine wrapped. I occasionally buy rolls of halves that are from the mint that someone has taken to a bank. They are clearly identified as such. I've also bought (not intentionally!) whole boxes of halves from 1995, 2021, 2022, and 2023 wrapped by the "Fed." In my case, Loomis.
