The US Treasury has announced that the US Mint has begun producing a new commemorative $1 coin featuring President Donald Trump as part of America's 250th anniversary celebrations. Scheduled for release this fall, the coin has sparked controversy because federal law generally bars living presidents from appearing on US currency, though the Treasury says it has authority to issue commemorative coins in certain circumstances.
