Treasury touts 'first drafts' of Trump dollar coin planned for next year Open in Nbcnews.com
Highlights
  • The Daily Beast reports Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent drafted a plan for a $1 coin featuring Donald Trump as part of America’s 250th anniversary celebrations, raising questions about legality due to rules against living presidents on currency.
  • The Daily Beast notes the plan could breach laws that prohibit the faces of living persons on U.S. currency, complicating the coin's legality for a 250th anniversary celebratory release.
  • There is political pushback implied, with lawmakers and observers framing living-president imagery on currency as historically unusual and potentially inappropriate for bipartisan commemorations.
