politics

The US Mint is now producing a commemorative one-dollar coin featuring Donald Trump to celebrate the nation's 250th anniversary, arriving this fall. The Guardian reports this marks the first time a living president has appeared on United States currency. The Treasury unveiled the design, though it differs from the version previously approved by the Commission of Fine Arts—specifically, it features a gold finish rather than solid gold.
