U.S. Mint Begins Selling $1 Coins Featuring President Trump's Image
What happened
The U.S. Mint began selling $1 coins featuring President Trump's image on September 2, 2026. The coins are being sold for more than their $1 face value. The Mint is marketing them as collectible items.
How the coverage differs
HuffPost focuses on critical social media reactions, highlighting one user's claim that the design "appears to show the birth date of liberty as 1776, and its death as 2026." The headline emphasizes that "The Reactions Are Priceless."
Axios frames the story around the legal but complicated nature of using the coins, describing them as sitting "in a rare middle ground" and noting the Mint is promoting them.
Fox Business leads with the price markup, emphasizing in the headline that "the Mint is charging a major mark-up" and noting the coins "cost much more than their face value to buy."
