Is It Legal for Donald Trump to Appear on a U.S. Mint Dollar Coin?
Questions have arisen regarding the legality of former President Donald Trump appearing on a U.S. Mint dollar coin. Under U.S. law, the Secretary of the Treasury, in coordination with the U.S. Mint, has the authority to approve who appears on official currency.
Traditionally, coins have featured historical figures, past presidents, and symbolic national icons. U.S. law generally prohibits the depiction of living persons on circulating coins, though commemorative coins can sometimes feature living individuals with special congressional approval.
Legal experts note that for Trump to appear on a dollar coin, either Congress would need to authorize a commemorative coin, or the coin would have to be a privately issued collectible rather than legal tender for everyday transactions.
This means while images of living figures are rare on official U.S. currency, there are mechanisms under which such a coin could be legally produced — most likely as a commemorative or collectible coin rather than standard circulation currency.
💡 Key Takeaway
Trump appearing on a U.S. Mint dollar coin for general circulation would not be standard practice under current U.S. law, but commemorative coins remain a legal possibility with congressional approval.

In an official statement, Tehran urged the international community not to comply with or implement the restrictions, stressing that such measures are politically motivated and harmful to global cooperation.
Iran argues that sanctions unfairly target its economy and people, while doing little to promote peace or stability in the region. Officials further called on nations to uphold principles of fairness and international law, warning that continued enforcement could deepen divisions and undermine diplomacy.
The latest response reflects Iran’s ongoing defiance in the face of Western pressure, as tensions remain high over issues ranging from nuclear policy to regional security.

Afghanistan’s Bagram Airbase: Why Is Trump Desperate to Take It Back?
Former U.S. President Donald Trump has sparked fresh debate by calling for the reclamation of Afghanistan’s Bagram Airbase, a facility long regarded as one of America’s most strategically significant military sites in the region.
Bagram, once the largest U.S. military base in Afghanistan, played a central role during the 20-year war on terror, serving as a hub for air operations, intelligence, and logistical support. Following the U.S. withdrawal in 2021, the base was abandoned and later taken over by Taliban forces.
Trump argues that reclaiming Bagram is critical for U.S. national security, particularly given its proximity to both China and Iran. Analysts suggest that his renewed focus on the base underscores concerns about growing regional instability and the shifting balance of global power.
Critics, however, note that any attempt to retake Bagram would come with enormous diplomatic, military, and financial risks—potentially reigniting conflict in a region where the U.S. has already paid a heavy price.
The debate over Bagram highlights the enduring symbolic and strategic weight of Afghanistan in U.S. foreign policy and the complex challenges tied to America’s legacy in the region.
