Trump $1 coin breaks 100-year legal ban on living persons, experts warn — only 2nd time ever

The U.S. Mint’s decision to feature President Trump’s image on a new $1 coin triggers a constitutional clash, as legal scholars argue it directly violates a federal statute prohibiting the likeness of living individuals on currency. With only one precedent—Calvin Coolidge in 1926—the Treasury’s reliance on a 2020 commemorative coin law is being challenged, setting the stage for potential litigation.
