Democracy Dies in Darkness: A notable trend is emerging, where nearly all world currencies feature a king or queen. In a unique movement, the U.S. Mint has begun producing a $1 coin displaying President Donald Trump’s image, as reported by the Treasury Department.
The term ‘dead presidents’ traditionally describes cash money. However, the very much alive President Trump could now be seen on U.S. coins and banknotes.
Since taking office again in 2025, Trump’s administration has prominently displayed the president’s image on various items, including federal buildings and national park passes. Featuring Trump on U.S. currency would represent the pinnacle of these initiatives. Presently, the value of tangible U.S. currency in circulation surpasses $2.46 trillion, a record high.
