$250 Gold Trump Coin Approved

[struth]

So your "outlier" Does or Doesn't extend to 2022, due to trump signing OPEC+.

You do know that OPEC+ was a 2 year deal......right?


I'll wait for your denial.

Well yes, because 2020 gave us xiden, and the dems, so yes their policies were in place in 2022 which gsve us 5 dollar a gallon gas, war in Europe, open borders, record COVID deaths, and the largest market crash since Jimmy Carter along with near double digit inflation

Had Trump won that wouldn’t of happened

Your vote did that

All that happened despite giving us three COVID vaccines, defensive weapons to Ukraine, low inflation, folks going back to work, a secure border, cheap gas, and a OPeC deal keeping oil prices low

That’s how horrible your vote was

 

[Winco]

Well yes, because 2020 gave us xiden,

Hummmm.....

You do realize that Trump was POTUS for ALL of 2020.
So No, 2020 didn't bring us Biden, as you claim.

so yes their policies were in place in 2022 which gsve us 5 dollar a gallon gas,

OPEC+, brokered by trump, a 2 YEAR agreement, brought us $5 gas.
Not Biden.

Key takeaway​

OPEC+ didn’t just “affect” production—it defined it.

Nearly every monthly change in your dataset corresponds to:

• quota changes
• compliance levels
• or new cut agreements

How did OPEC+ deal affect gas prices in the USA?

The OPEC+ deal had a clear but indirect impact on U.S. gasoline prices—by controlling global oil supply, it influenced crude oil prices, which then flowed through to what Americans pay at the pump.

Here’s how that played out from 2020–2023:

---

How oil production → U.S. gas prices works​

• Crude oil = ~50–60% of gasoline cost
• OPEC+ controls a large share of global supply
  When OPEC+ cuts production → oil prices rise → gas prices rise (and vice versa)

---

Timeline: OPEC+ decisions vs U.S. gas prices​

2020 (COVID crash + record cuts)​

• OPEC+ cut ~9.7 million barrels/day
• But demand collapsed even more

Result:

• Oil prices crashed (even briefly negative)
• U.S. gas prices fell to ~$2.00/gal or lower

OPEC+ cuts softened the crash, but couldn’t prevent low prices

---

2021 (controlled supply = rising prices)​

• OPEC+ slowly increased production (tight supply)

Result:

• Oil prices climbed steadily
• U.S. gas prices rose from ~$2.25 → $3.30/gal

OPEC+ restraint = gradual price increase

---

2022 (tight supply + geopolitical shock)​

• OPEC+ was already limiting output
• Then the Russian invasion of Ukraine disrupted markets

Result:

• Oil spiked above $120/barrel
• U.S. gas prices hit record highs:
  • ~$5.00/gal (June 2022 peak)

OPEC+ not increasing supply fast enough amplified the spike

---

Late 2022 (cuts again)​

• OPEC+ cut ~2 mb/d in October

Effect:

• Helped keep oil prices elevated
• Slowed decline in gas prices

---

2023 (continued cuts = price support)​

• Additional voluntary cuts (~3+ mb/d)

Result:

• Gas prices fluctuated ~$3.20–$4.00/gal
• Stayed higher than pre-COVID norms

OPEC+ cuts prevented prices from falling further

---

Big picture impact on U.S. gas prices​

What OPEC+ DID​

• Prevented oil from staying cheap after 2020
• Contributed to 2021–2022 price surge
• Supported higher price floor in 2023

What OPEC+ DID NOT control alone​

U.S. gas prices also depend on:

• Domestic refining capacity
• Seasonal demand (summer spikes)
• U.S. shale production
• Geopolitics (like Ukraine war)

---

Simple cause-and-effect​

OPEC+ cuts supply
↓
Global oil prices rise
↓
U.S. gasoline prices increase

---

Key takeaway​

OPEC+ is one of the biggest external drivers of U.S. gas prices.

• It doesn’t set gas prices directly
• But by controlling global oil supply, it strongly influences the baseline price Americans pay

 

[Winco]

and a OPeC deal keeping oil prices low

And YOU believe this ^^^^^^^ what you wrote?


OPEC+ gave us High gas prices, because people went back to work, under Biden, but supply was LOW, because of trump.

So those initial low prices, because oil went negative, that is why prices were lowered, then OPEC+ last for 2 years, thanks to trump, and prices soared to $5.00, at the end of the OPEC+ Deal, then once trumps terrible deal was over, gas prices returned.

JFC.

Yes I do, hence why I said it gave us xiden

And gave us all the polices we highlighted

Your cut and paste job is just lies

The price of oil per barrol in 2019 was no different then in 2021 and we didn’t have five dollar gallon gas then

Th opec deal keep many American oil companies open and from crashing when oil dropped due to the Chinese virus

 

[egp320i]

It's also illegal.

it's not legal tender, it's just an ego coin basically
not trump president but as a person
least that's what I read

 

[Fort Fun Indiana]

it's not legal tender, it's just an ego coin basically

Commemorative coins are, indeed, legal tender.

 

[egp320i]

Commemorative coins are, indeed, legal tender.

NOPE, never have been and are not sanctioned by the US mint

1. The "Living President" Rule​

There is a long-standing federal tradition (and some specific statutes, like the 1866 Thayer Amendment) that generally prohibits living people—specifically sitting presidents—from appearing on official U.S. currency.

• The Conflict: Recently (in March 2026), a federal arts commission approved a 24-karat gold commemorative Trump coin.
  
  
  
  
• The Argument: Critics argue this violates the spirit or letter of the law regarding living presidents on currency. Supporters, and the Treasury, argue that because these are commemorative collector items and not "circulating currency" (money you'd use at a grocery store), the rule doesn't apply.
  

2. The Hobby Protection Act​

If a coin is a private "replica" or "tribute" (not made by the U.S. Mint), it must follow the Hobby Protection Act.

• The Requirement: It is actually illegal to manufacture or import "imitation numismatic items" (fake coins) unless they are clearly and permanently marked with the word "COPY."
  
  
  
  
• The "Similitude" Rule: Under 18 U.S. Code § 485 and § 489, it can be illegal to create anything that has a "similitude" (too close a resemblance) to actual U.S. coins if there is an intent to defraud.
  

3. Private vs. Official​

• Private Medallions: If you buy a "Trump Coin" from a private company (like those seen on TV ads), those are technically medals or tokens, not coins. They are legal to own and sell as long as they don't claim to be $1, $5, etc., or try to trick people into thinking they are government-issued money.
• Official Mint Issues: The new 2026 gold commemorative coin is an official U.S. Mint product. While it is "legal tender" in a technical sense (it has a face value), it is meant for collectors, which is how the government justifies putting a sitting president's face on it.

---

Summary: If it’s a private souvenir, it’s legal as long as it doesn't try to look like a "fake" version of a real $20 bill or quarter. If it's the official 2026 Mint version, the government has authorized it, even if some legal scholars are still arguing over the "living president" rule.


I have a bunch of silver dollar coins with buffalo, dogs, eagles but they are NOT legal tender
they are bullion coins with a print and do not say anything about the mint

 

[BS Filter]

Democrats are so miserable. Makes my day.

 

[Mashmont]

Maybe I'm reading this wrong but if you think you can buy $5000 - $10000 worth of gold for $250 then you have some screws loose. Surely I didn't understand your post correctly.

Surely you didn’t. I said ur would cost $10,000 to $20,000. Beyond the reach of all the folks on here blasting it.

 

[Mashmont]

Trump the sunsetting career criminal is exactly the sort of person that was anticipated, when the law banning this was written and passed.

Clinton, you mean.

 

[Correll]

Trump supporters make more than you do, so...

The hate and contempt, dripping from his post, it is digusting.

You know, white voters, thought they trended towards Trump, are not bloc voters like blacks, 40% of them voted for Harris.


There is a real decent change that the old white guy that invisibleflash is ridiculing, was, and still is, on his side.


Which, imo, makes those whites, complete simps, but that is another matter.

 

[hadit]

Trump’s father was never worth close to a billion in his lifetime. So that’s lie #1. I already explained the casino reorganizations to you.

Facts don't matter when a narrative needs to be spun.
