- In the United States, they proposed to issue a $250 banknote with a portrait of Trump.
The administration of US President Donald Trump is seeking to create a commemorative banknote with a face value of $ 250 with the image of the current head of state. This was reported on May 28 by The Washington Post (WP).
"Officials responsible for printing government money insist on developing a $250 banknote with a portrait of the president. This would be the first time an image of a living person has appeared on American money in more than 150 years," the article says.
One of the layouts provides for the image of the president in the center of the banknote next to the autographs of Trump himself and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessant. The author of the layout was the British artist Ian Alexander. According to him, he discussed the design personally with Trump, and the president approved the addition of the colors of the American flag and logo for the 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States.
According to WP, a bill allowing the placement of Trump's image on a $250 bill has been under consideration by the US Congress since 2025, but has not yet been adopted.
On March 26, the US Treasury Department announced that Trump's signature would appear on American dollar bills for the first time in history. US Treasurer Brandon Beach noted that Trump's autograph on dollars was "well deserved."
