No way this is real. Liberal heads are going to explode if so

Please be real! I'd be handing the silver one's out for presents, and would probably keep a gold one for my collection.

I thought there’s a law that living people can’t be on any US currency.

From our “friend” Chat GPT;

There isn’t actually a statutory law that explicitly forbids living people from being on U.S. currency. Instead, it’s a long-standing Treasury Department policy.

Here’s the breakdown:
• U.S. law (31 U.S.C. § 5114, etc.) gives the Secretary of the Treasury authority over designs of coins and paper money. Nowhere in the statutes is there a rule saying “no living person may appear.”
• Treasury / Bureau of Engraving and Printing policy (dating back to the 19th century) specifically prohibits depicting living persons on currency. The rationale was to avoid the appearance of monarchy, favoritism, or a “cult of personality.”
• This policy is why all portraits on current U.S. bills and coins are of deceased figures (e.g., presidents, Founding Fathers).
• Historically, a few living people did appear on U.S. currency/notes in the 1800s before the rule was firmly established. For example, Salmon P. Chase, while serving as Lincoln’s Treasury Secretary, had his own portrait placed on the $1 “greenback” in 1862.

So the short answer is:
No law forbids it, but there is a firm Treasury rule—and in practice, living people are not allowed on U.S. currency.

Liberals should buy billions of them just so they can destroy them in protest.


Tranny boy Klan, do work.

Sounds real

But I bet they're also doing a non-Trump 250th coin too (and they should).

The obverse is nice, but the reverse is a bit too QVC for me. Class it up. Stick an eagle on there or something.

Not with this guy. He'll want his image and name all over that thing. Might as well make them since you can't find any more of the Trump Casino coins.

They did Eisenhower in 1976 (he died in 1969). If not Trump, maybe Reagan?
