Trump Ditches Abolition Coins and Weighs Putting His Own Face on One Instead

President Donald Trump has reportedly axed plans to mint new coins marking some of the most celebrated social changes in U.S. history, as he considers sticking his own face on one instead.

The Wall Street Journal reports that plans to mint a series of quarters honoring abolition, the civil rights movement, and women’s suffrage ahead have been scrapped.

The designs would have been part of celebrations for the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence next year.
