What the new proposed 250th anniversary dollar coin with Trump's face looks like

The Mint's official website showed three proposed designs for the obverse of the one-dollar coin with the image of President Donald J. Trump. The inscriptions are "LIBERTY," "IN GOD WE TRUST" and "1776 ~ 2026."

The Mint unveiled changes, for one year only, to iconic coins, such as the dime, the nickel, the quarter, the 50-cent coin and the one-dollar coin. In addition, in 2026, the Mint will release special coins and medals with unique designs and improvements to its regular products and annual releases.

The decision was made to celebrate the nation's 250th anniversary. In that regard, the federal agency detailed that selected products will bear the dates "1776 ~ 2026," the Liberty Bell or otherwise commemorate America's anniversary.

The Mint's official website showed three proposed designs for the front of the $1 coin with the image of President Donald J. Trump. The inscriptions are "LIBERTY," "IN GOD WE TRUST," and "1776 ~ 2026."

For the back of the coin, a proposal was submitted featuring an eagle. The inscriptions vary depending on the design, but include phrases such as "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA," "E PLURIBUS UNUM" and "ONE DOLLAR."

Approval of the proposal

Meanwhile, a federal arts commission will weigh Thursday whether to approve the gold commemorative coin bearing Donald Trump's image despite Democrats and members of another federal committee saying the idea is deeply inappropriate and potentially illegal.

The Fine Arts Commission has so far voiced support for the administration's projects, including unanimous approval of the Trump White House ballroom last month.
