2026-P US Semiquincentennial President Donald J. Trump Dollar NGC MS-66 FDOI Paul Hollis Facsimile Black Core
The 2026-P US Semiquincentennial President Donald J. Trump Dollar NGC MS-66 FDOI Paul Hollis Facsimile Black Core coin is part of the United States Mint's landmark program celebrating the nation's 250th anniversary. Struck at the Philadelphia Mint, this golden dollar places a sitting president on American coinage for the first time in a century, a distinction last held by Calvin Coolidge on the 1926 Sesquicentennial Half Dollar. The coin was issued under the Circulating Collectible Coin Redesign Act of 2020, which authorized the redesigned $1 coin for release during 2026 in honor of the Semiquincentennial.
This example has been certified MS-66 by NGC with the First Day of Issue (FDOI) designation, confirming its early submission for grading. It is further distinguished by a label bearing the facsimile signature of current U.S. Mint Director Paul Hollis and is housed in NGC's Black Core holder, a distinctive presentation reserved for select certified releases.

The Design
The obverse presents a forward facing portrait of President Donald J.

"LIBERTY" arcs across the top of the coin, "IN GOD WE TRUST" appears to the right of the portrait, and the dual date "1776 ~ 2026" curves along the bottom, marking the span between the nation's founding and its 250th anniversary.
The reverse carries the Presidential Seal, featuring a heraldic eagle with spread wings holding an olive branch and a bundle of arrows. The shield on the eagle's breast bears the number "250," a direct reference to the nation's Semiquincentennial. The reverse also includes the inscriptions "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA," "ONE DOLLAR," and "E PLURIBUS UNUM."

Paul Hollis Facsimile Label, Black Core Holder
This coin's NGC label carries the facsimile signature of Paul Hollis, the current Director of the United States Mint.
