Overview

  • U.S. Treasurer Brandon Beach posted the preliminary designs on X, and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent shared the post.
  • The drafts depict Trump’s profile on the obverse and a raised‑fist image with the inscription “FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT” on the reverse, referencing the 2024 Butler rally incident.
  • A Treasury spokesperson said the designs are preliminary and that no final selection has been made.
  • The department indicated the piece would be legal tender intended as a commemorative, not for general circulation.
  • The 2020 Circulating Collectible Coin Redesign Act authorizes $1 semiquincentennial designs in a one‑year window starting January 1, 2026, but long‑standing laws against portraying living persons raise legal questions that experts say could prompt legislative or judicial review.
