Watch: Trump $1 commemorative coin goes on saleCloseThe US Mint began selling gold-coloured $1(£0.74) coins featuring President Donald Trump's likeness. Although US regulations permit only deceased people to appear on currency, the Trump administration has said that the president may appear on a coin under a 2020 law allowing new designs to commemorate the country's 250th anniversary.
The price of the coin, when purchased online, depends on the quantity. A 25-coin roll costs $61(£45), while a 100-coin bag costs $154.50 (£114).
The BBC's Madeline Gerber visited the US Mint coin store to learn more.
