The US Mint has launched a gold-colored $1 coin featuring President Donald Trump's image, celebrating the 250th anniversary of the United States. This release is notable as regulations typically restrict living individuals from appearing on currency, but a 2020 law allows for such commemorative designs.
The coin's introduction reflects a unique intersection of currency design and political history, marking a significant moment in how the US commemorates its leaders and milestones. The coin is available for purchase at the US Mint's coin store.
