My wife said something about it to me, but I haven't heard much besides the Guthrie case. I'm not for that or much of anything he does, sorry.
This is all the BBC has on it... 250th anniversary one off it seems. Trump's signature to appear on US bank notes in first for sitting president - BBC News
I haven't heard about this, though this forum is filling up with new updates on what Trump is doing to money or special coins. If he does sign the paper bills, it's not going to hurt anyone. It's only a huge production if Trump does it lol. Anyway, it will be interesting to see how this plays out.
Here is what I got from a different site. June 2026: Printing begins for $100 bills with Trump and Bessent signatures. July 4, 2026: Official launch of the 250th-anniversary currency series. Late 2026: Progressive rollout to $50, $20, and lower denominations. Trump’s Signature to Appear on US Currency: Is it Official?
This just came up in one of my news feeds. The Treasury Department on Thursday announced plans to add Donald Trump’s signature to all new U.S. paper currency. The move will be a first for a sitting president, as American dollar bills typically carry the signatures of the Treasury Secretary and the Treasurer, not the Chief Executive.
Seems that the newest paper money I have gotten are 2017 bills I may have gotten newer. Anyways how fast will these bills be hitting commerce? 2035?
Still, 2030 then? I have never strap hunted. Are you able to contact your bank and ask for new bills?
I've never tried asking my bank for new bills. I generally find the 2021 bills in circulation at checkouts. The oldest I ever found in circulation was a 1999 $1 bill from the Clinton administration. I usually check the date of every currency, bill or coin, that passes through my hands. I live in a city with almost 700,000 people, so lots of commerce occurs. As far as whether you can request new bills at the bank, I can't help you there.
We went through this on Reddit. Ignoring the political garbage (and yes, I'm ordering a new stamp), the applicable law goes to great lengths about the requirements for coins and security paper, but largely leaves paper money to the Secretary of the Treasury's discretion. Just be glad that Disney didn't contribute a million dollars, or that could be the currency of the land.
