The U.S. Treasury Department shared a draft plan to commemorate the 250th anniversary of the United States by minting a $1 coin featuring President Trump.

The draft design of the coin features Trump’s profile on one side, while the other side depicts Trump with his fist clenched in front of an American flag, accompanied by the words “FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT.”

“No fake news here. These first drafts honoring America’s 250th Birthday and @POTUS are real,” U.S. Treasurer Brandon Beach confirmed.

“Looking forward to sharing more soon, once the obstructionist shutdown of the United States government is over,” he added.

Around the outside edge of the tails side, the Trump coin also reads, “Fight, fight, fight,” in addition to the traditional, “United States of America” and “E Pluribus Unum.”

The coin will be legal tender, meaning it can be used like standard currency, with a value of $1.

“Despite the radical left’s forced shutdown of our government, the facts are clear: Under the historic leadership of President Donald J. Trump, our nation is entering its 250th anniversary stronger, more prosperous, and better than ever before,” a Treasury Department spokesperson stated, according to POLITICO.

POLITICO noted:

Congress in 2020 passed bipartisan legislation, signed by Trump during his first term, that authorizes the Treasury Secretary to issue $1 dollar coins during the 2026 calendar year. The design of those coins must be “emblematic of the United States semiquincentennial.”
