1776-2026 Semiquincentennial President Trump Dollar | Original 100-Coin US Mint Bag | July 4th Privy Hunt

The Original US Mint Bag — Your Shot at the July 4th Privy

The most talked-about coin of 2026, straight from the United States Mint in its original sealed bag. This 100-Coin Original US Mint Bag contains Philadelphia-struck 1776–2026 Semiquincentennial President Donald J. Trump $1 Coins — including the ultra-rare Independence Day “JULY 4TH” Privy Mark coins randomly inserted throughout.

What’s in the Bag?

Of the 9,000,000 Trump dollars struck at the Philadelphia Mint, only 250,000 carry the coveted July 4th privy mark — struck on Independence Day and distributed at random within standard rolls and bags. Statistically, a 100-coin bag is expected to contain approximately 2–3 privy-mark coins. There is no way to know how many are inside without opening it — some collectors may find more, some fewer. The thrill is in the hunt.

These bags were sold directly by the U.S. Mint at $154.50 each (25-coin rolls at $61). The Mint’s entire allocation of 50,000 bags sold out almost immediately after the September 2 launch. You cannot buy these directly from the Mint anymore.

Why It Matters

This coin is historic for reasons beyond the privy mark. It is the first U.S. coin in modern history to feature a living, serving president — a fact that generated fierce legal debate and international headlines. The Presidential $1 Coin Act of 2005 bans living presidents’ images on U.S. coins, but Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent invoked the Circulating Collectible Coin Redesign Act of 2020 (signed by Trump himself in his first term) to authorize the design. The coins are legal tender and fully authorized by the U.S. government — but their controversial nature, combined with the limited privy mintage, makes them among the most collectible items of the entire 250th anniversary series.

Original, Sealed, Authentic

These bags are in the original US Mint packaging, exactly as they arrived from the Mint. The coins have never been placed into circulation, though they are legal tender. All coins are Philadelphia-struck, carry no mint mark, and feature a plain edge — unique characteristics that distinguish Trump dollars from all other presidential and circulating dollar coins.

Coin Design

The obverse portrait of President Trump was engraved by U.S. Mint Chief Engraver Joseph Menna from an official White House photograph. Obverse inscriptions: LIBERTY, IN GOD WE TRUST, 1776 ∼ 2026. The reverse, by former Chief Engraver Frank Gasparro, features the Presidential Seal with 250 on the shield, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, and ONE DOLLAR.
