The US Treasury is preparing to issue new $1 coins featuring President Donald Trump as part of efforts to commemorate the 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States. According to official statements, the new coins will celebrate both Trump and the milestone anniversary, also referred to as the semiquincentennial.
The Treasury has released a draft image of the proposed coin, which shows Trump with an American flag and his fist raised. The draft closely resembles a photo taken during an event in 2023 when Trump was wounded in an assassination attempt. A Treasury spokesperson stated to FOX Business: “Under the historic leadership of President Donald J. Trump, our nation is entering its 250th anniversary stronger, more prosperous, and better than ever.”
Officials clarified that the $1 coin’s design is not yet final. In a statement, the Treasury explained, “While a final $1 dollar coin design has not yet been selected to commemorate the United States’ semiquincentennial, this first draft reflects well the enduring spirit of our country and democracy, even in the face of immense obstacles. We look forward to sharing more soon.” The draft image is currently circulating on social media, attracting public attention.
Past commemorative coins include the Harriet Tubman and Greatest Generation coins issued in 2024, selling 56,894 and 79,980 units, respectively. The best-selling commemorative coin to date is the 1986 U.S. Statue of Liberty coin, which sold about 15.5 million coins. The release of the Trump $1 coin is anticipated in early 2026, but an exact launch date has not been confirmed.
