Ready for the 1 Dollar Trump Coin?

[Blisterfinger]

Trump/MAGA is determined to be the laughing stock of the world!

Your side is the petulant, violent laughing stock.

 

[Harry Dresden]

Well, we certainly don’t have one now, unless your destination is ‘over the cliff’.

hence why i said its been many a year....

 

[OhPleaseJustQuit]

Those Trump images on both sides of the coin are totally void of any image of the US or it's people. A real US coin should never be allowed to be all about dictator Trump.

.

Lie.

There's an image of the US Flag on the reverse.

And Mr. Trump IS, after all, an American President.

And the words, "United States of America", "E Pluribus Unum" and "In God We Trust" are all pretty clearly visible.

But enjoy your fantasy world.

Right, but that does not apply to this coin.

31 USC 5112 says....

"Limitation in series to deceased presidents.—
No coin issued under this subsection may bear the image of a living former or current President, or of any deceased former President during the 2-year period following the date of the death of that President."

The subsection is "Redesign and Issuance of Circulating $1 Coins Honoring Each of the Presidents of the United States.—"

The Trump coin is not his presidential coin; it is the $1 semiquincentennial coin.

^This does not apply to the Trump coin.

Similarly, 31 USC 5114 says...
"Only the portrait of a deceased individual may appear on United States currency and securities."

The Trump coin is commemorative. It is not currency or securities.

^This does not apply to the Trump coin.

It seems to me that all the fact checks everywhere are wrong, and only JGalt got it right.

Gee, Jim, if you spent as much time reading as you spend typing, you would have seen that I made this exact point numerous times in this very thread as to why this coin doesn't have a chance of seeing the light of day. It's just Trump poking the bear.

After all He’s done for us and all He gets is a lousy one dollar coin?

Except that coin, if it were minted today would, in reality, be at least a $50 coin.

Codified in law. He can be on a coin-----two years AFTER HE IS DEAD.

But does that include bullion coins? I've got to get to the coin dealer. I'm almost certain I've seen him on at least a few bullion coins.

I'll retain that opinion until I've gotten to the coin dealer.

I admit, I still don't understand all the fine differences between bullion and tender coins. I've got a one ounce coin from back in the 1800's that says $10 on it, but it's worth almost $4,000.

There are no laws regulating bullion coins. They are regarded much the same as gold dust would be. The laws relate to legal US tender.

So, since this coin is definitely bullion, no laws apply to how images can/must be used and there is no ruling about having to wait until after the subject's death to manufacture it?

Correct. Bullion coins are no different than the bullion ingots that you can buy at Costco.

LOL, yeah when precious metal values fluctuate, it is hard to relate to denominations. Similar to the penny, it costs almost a nickel to produce one---that's why they've discontinued their use. Here's a piece of numismatic trivia. Do you know why coins like the dime, quarter, half dollar and dollar have the bumpy, reeded edge? It was implemented to prevent unscrupulous people from scraping the edges of coins and gleaning small amounts of the value when gold was commonly used as tender.

Yes, I did wonder! Many thanks for that bit of trivia.

Related to why a jeweler's bench has a little drawer beneath the work area, to catch dust and filings.

And the Afghans who harvest opium in the poppy fields must always have their nails trimmed to almost nothing, so they cannot smuggle out even tiny amounts of raw opium under their nails.

Who’s laughing about violence? MAGA lies.

Your side no longer laughing about violence since we've been cracking your skulls. LOL you are a laughing stock.

 

[BlindBoo]

On the front, Benedict should be pictured grabbing Lady Liberty by the *****. On the back, images of Donald's Jan 6th rioters violently opposing our Constitution and ignoring Law and Order.

That's the kind of man they want to commemorate 250 years with.

On the other hand, there is a new stamp in the works

 

[Clipper]

Trump is the US and its people. Having the image of a living President on a coin isn't new. Calvin Coolidge was depicted on the Sesquicentennial of American Independence half-dollar in 1926.

.

Was Coolidge depraved, a traitor & worshipped by millions of clueless halftards?

I see Biden is still living rent free in your head, halftard. But you'll never get the stink of Trump's ass off your breath. Nice consolation prize for ya.
