The coins, created to commemorate America\u2019s 250th birthday, depicted Trump on the obverse and the Presidential seal on the reverse, with a special &#8220;July 4th&#8221; privy mark included in some rolls. Despite high demand and quick sellout of initial inventory,the Mint continues to accept orders. The coins are made of a copper, zinc, manganese, and nickel blend and have a gold-like appearance, with a face value of one dollar. They are available for purchase at the Mint, on eBay, and other outlets, priced at $61 for a roll of 25 coins and $154.50 for a bag of 100. The issuance was authorized under a 2020 law for celebrating the United States\u2019 semiquincentennial, making it a historic and notable collectible, with Trump expressing honor at being featured on a coin-an unusual occurrence for a living president.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><br \/>\n<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC \"-\/\/W3C\/\/DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional\/\/EN\" \"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/TR\/REC-html40\/loose.dtd\"><br \/>\n<?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><html><body><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>Dollar coins bearing a likeness of President Donald Trump sold out in just three hours on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p>The U.S. Mint began selling the coins at noon, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2026\/09\/02\/politics\/trump-coins-out-of-stock\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CNN<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>By 12:30 p.m., online customers were put in a waiting area where they stayed for an hour before being able to shop.
