Mint issues Trump portrait on $1 coin to mark U.S. 250th anniversary

The U.S. Mint will begin selling a $1 commemorative coin featuring President Donald Trump's image to celebrate 250 years of American heritage; the obverse shows Trump's likeness with LIBERTY and 1776–2026 while the reverse bears the Great Seal. The coins are legal tender and come in rolls and bags with prices of $61 for 25 coins or $154.50 for 100, with a household purchase limit that lifts later; some coins are stamped 'July 4th' and considered special issue. The release has drawn scrutiny because living presidents are typically not depicted on U.S. currency, though the Treasury Secretary may authorize such minting in certain cases.
