No.
Yeah…thats not happening.
And for maybe the first time (not sure) the Presidents signature in being put on the new $100 bill.
Usually the signatures are the Sec of Treasury and the US Treasurer.
Trump replaces the Bessent signature. He laughed about it.
If it happens, I am not surprised.
Trump is love with himself and wants plaster himself all over the place. Obama was never like this yet many here think he did.
I have never seen a President like him and I never will.
Would be worth a bit more than a buck.
ha ha, dollar gold coin measures in nanometers?
Why not George Washington?
I thought this was either a complete hoax or a coin minted by some private mint.
So I just looked it up. From what I can tell, the story is correct. The US Mint is indeed producing a Trump coin.
And I am frankly disgusted. It has long been the policy of the Mint that no living person be on US money. But evidently there’s a loophole connected to our 250th birthday celebration.
If I’m reading this wrong, I will happily stand corrected.

if these are anything like the other SEMIQUINCENTENNIAL commemorative $1 coins, they’re clad, presumably with a thin layer of gold, though that’s actually not clear ...

OTOH, there are indeed quite a few beautiful SEMIQUINCENTENNIAL coins struck in 24K solid based on the designs of some of Americas most beautiful historic coin designs:

Unnecessary vanity project, likely to backfire. The comments in that X announcement thread are brutal.
I am surprised that Trump hasn’t already put his face on Mt. Rushmore or renamed it.
They’re a circulating coin just like the Sacajawea coin. I’ll order a couple hundred just to use as circulating money and make TDS sufferers have distress.
A COIN THAT SIZE FOR $1 ???????
OR IS IT ONLY GOLD PLATED?
We sure have a lot of jealous Freepers.
Im a Trump supported (90%) but this is a terrible idea. This is what dictators do.
Not necessary narcissism.
Any true gold coin would require it's gold content be stated on the text on the coin !!
Too .... whatever ...
SOMETHING SAD ABOUT THIS
President Trump is a great president. A man of tremendous ability and transformational influence on the history of our nation and the world.
But something about his need for immediate recognition and his inability to allow history to render its judgment with appropriate honors in my view tarnishes his legacy. Naming Art Centers after yourself and having coins struck with your image while you are alive isn’t something a confident and self assured man would do. It’s as if he has some empty hole inside himself that he is driven to fill but is never quite able to do it with all the wealth and power and beautiful women he has amassed.
When is enough, enough?
Something about this man is a Greek tragedy.
I like the Trump ego-tripping here. Making DemonRat heads explode everywhere! Same for our commie tilted media.
btw The Trump one dollar coin is non-circulating. I was hoping it would be a silver dollar of sorts.
