According to a report by Theblock on October 31, Deep Tide TechFlow news states that the U.S. Treasury plans to issue a one-dollar Trump presidential commemorative coin, which has sparked strong criticism from lawmakers. The coin is intended to celebrate the 250th anniversary of American independence, featuring Trump's portrait on the front and an image of him raising his fist in front of the U.S. flag on the back, along with the words “Fight, Fight, Fight.”

Democratic Senator Chris Van Hollen questioned during Thursday's Senate Banking Committee nomination hearing that printing the president's portrait on official coins is illegal, and more outrageously, that the design is linked to the TRUMP meme coin from which Trump profits. “Fight, Fight, Fight” is the name of the company behind the TRUMP meme coin, which was launched by Trump just days before his second inauguration this year.

Paul Hollis, the nominee for the Director of the U.S. Mint, stated when asked about the matter that he would “100% commit to always complying with the law.”
