US currency is making history with the addition of President Donald J Trump's signature, a first since the introduction of the dollar bill in 1861. The US Treasury's decision aligns with the celebrations of America's 250th anniversary of independence.
President Trump is set to share this historical milestone with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, whose signatures will symbolize leadership and economic growth. Alongside the currency, a 24-karat gold commemorative coin featuring Trump's image has also been approved to commemorate the event.
US Treasurer Brandon Beach emphasized that Trump's hallmark on the currency cements his influence on the nation's economic renaissance, a testament to the President's lasting impact and recognition of historic significance.
