US Treasurer confirms plans for Trump silver dollar to celebrate America’s 250th

US Treasurer Brandon Beach confirmed the authenticity of a planned silver dollar marking the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence — depicting President Trump on both sides of the coin.

“No fake news here. These first drafts honoring America’s 250th Birthday and @POTUS are real,” Beach tweeted Friday afternoon.

Looking forward to sharing more soon, once the obstructionist shutdown of the United States government is over. https://t.co/c6HChM6ijG

“Looking forward to sharing more soon, once the obstructionist shutdown of the United States government is over.”

One side of the mock-up shows Trump’s face above the words “In God We Trust” and the date 1776-2026. The reverse shows Trump’s iconic fist-pump after surviving an assassination attempt last year, and the words “FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT.”

It’s extremely uncommon for US currency to feature a living person and it was not immediately clear how many of the coins are likely to be made.
