In an announcement on Thursday, the US Department of the Treasury said the move would mark the 250th anniversary of the US.
It will put both Trump and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent’s signatures on future US notes.
“There is no more powerful way to recognize the historic achievements of our great country and President Donald J. Trump than U.S. dollar bills bearing his name, and it is only appropriate that this historic currency be issued at the Semiquincentennial,” Bessent said.
Until now, the tradition has been to put the signatures of the treasurer and the Treasury secretary on US paper currency.
This move would mark the first time in history that a sitting president is placing his signature on US currency.
