U.S. Treasury Unveils Coin with Trump’s Face, $100 Bill Featuring Presidential Signature

The U.S. Treasury Department has unveiled a new $100 bill featuring President Donald Trump’s signature and a dollar coin featuring his portrait.

Trump’s signature will be included on all denominations of paper currency alongside Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent’s to commemorate the 250th anniversary of the United States, making him the first president to put his name on cash.

“As Treasury secretary, I only have two mandates — the currency has to say ‘In God we trust’ somewhere on it, and we cannot have an image of a living person,” Bessent explained to Fox News host Jesse Watters while taking him on a tour of the department this week:

“But we have the president’s signature,” the secretary continued. “Which, again, I think is appropriate for the 250th.”

Bessent used “currency” in the “paper money” sense of the word. The department can, however, include living people’s images on special coins. (Read more from “U.S. Treasury Unveils Coin with Trump’s Face, $100 Bill Featuring Presidential Signature” HERE)
