The gold-colored coin bears a rendering of Trump’s face on the obverse side, along with the inscriptions “Liberty,” “In God We Trust” and “1776 ~ 2026.” The reverse side features the presidential seal, which depicts an eagle holding an olive branch and a bundle of arrows, with an inscription reading “250” to honor the nation’s semi‑quincentennial anniversary.
The U.S. Mint noted the coins may be used as legal tender but also pitched them as collectibles. “Created to celebrate this historic national milestone, these special circulating dollar coins combine everyday American coinage with a once-in-a-generation anniversary design destined to become a standout addition to modern collections,” the U.S. Mint said.
The institution also added it is randomly including 250,000 special‑issue $1 Trump coins with a “July 4th” privy mark in the bags and rolls for sale on its site.

The best‑selling commemorative coin of all time was the U.S. Statue of Liberty coin in 1986, which sold nearly 15.5 million coins.
