Trump to Appear on New $1 Coin | US News
Description
The U.S. Mint is unveiling a new dollar coin for America’s 250th anniversary featuring President Donald Trump — yes, really. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent called it a tribute to liberty and Trump’s leadership, complete with his portrait, “In God We Trust,” and the dates 1776–2026. It’s not gold — just a gold-plated finish on non-precious metals — and will roll out this fall. The idea stems from a 2020 bipartisan law allowing special commemorative coins, though it sparked debate over whether a living president can grace the front.
