    It is a private company ripping people off. The coin is cheap to make but they sell it for like $50 bucks.

    The white house is not involved

        It is unaffiliated with Trump. These coins have been done long before Trump was ever president.

            yes, official us mint coins have been

            The US Mint produces two things which should not be confused. They make actual legal US currency coins which hold monetary value based on the “full faith” of the United States as money. These frequently have artwork of past Presidents. The US Mint also produces collectable medals. The medals are not money.

            The trump thing you linked is a medal, not money. There is no US currency with trump on it. My understanding is that the only money with US Presidents on it is dead US Presidents. That would exclude trump.
