U.S. Mint launches $1 Trump coin for nation’s 250th anniversary

On September 2, the U. S. Mint began selling a gold-finished $1 coin commemorating America’s 250th birthday, featuring President Donald Trump on the obverse and the Great Seal on the reverse, officials said. Earlier, the Mint offered the coins in rolls of 25 for $61 and bags of 100 for $154. 50, while legal experts warned the depiction of a living person might conflict with statutes that bar such images on U.

S. currency; international outlets noted it was the first time in decades that a sitting president appeared on a U. S. coin.
