Donald Trump set to feature on 24-carat gold coin to celebrate 250 years of independence from Britain

A 24-carat gold coin featuring US President Donald Trump has been unanimously approved by the Commission of Fine Arts to celebrate America's 250th anniversary.

Several hand-picked allies of Trump had taken part in approving the design on Thursday, giving the US Mint the go-ahead to start production of this commemorative coin.

"As we approach our 250th birthday, we are so thrilled to prepare coins that represent the enduring spirit of our nation and democracy, and there is no profile more emblematic for the front of such coins than that of our serving president,"- the US Treasurer shared in a statement.

The coin features a design that is inspired by Trump's portrait in the National Portrait Gallery.

One side of this coin would display a stern-looking Trump with clenched fists resting on a desk. This would be accompanied by the inscription Liberty shown above. The reverse side of the mockups would feature a bald eagle poised for flight.
