The United States Mint has issued a one-dollar coin featuring the image of former President Donald Trump to commemorate the 250th anniversary of U.S. independence. The coin, which was officially released and is available for purchase in packages of 25 and 100 coins at premium prices of up to 144% and 54.5%, respectively, depicts Trump during his time in office on the obverse, with the presidential seal on the reverse. Its release falls under the 2020 Coin Re Design Act, which authorized the issuance of coins related to the country's 250th anniversary. However, this move has sparked legal controversy due to the inclusion of a living person's image, which conflicts with American laws that prohibit placing images of living individuals on currency. The restriction on images of living people dates back to the 19th century, requiring congressional approval for coins featuring living persons. Nonetheless, the Mint based its decision on a special exception granted for this occasion.
