The United States Mint has released a special $1 coin featuring President Donald J. Trump as part of activities marking the 250th anniversary of American independence in 2026.
The commemorative coin features Trump’s portrait on the front, alongside the inscriptions “LIBERTY,” “IN GOD WE TRUST” and “1776–2026.” The reverse carries the Presidential Seal of the United States and the traditional motto, “E PLURIBUS UNUM.”
