Arts Panel Pushes for Record-Sized 24K Trump Coin

TL;DR Summary
A seven-member Commission of Fine Arts voted to urge the Treasury to mint a 24-karat gold commemorative coin featuring Donald Trump and to make it as large as possible, potentially up to three inches in diameter, after Trump approved the design. The Treasury will make the final call on the coin's specs after consultations with the CFA and the Citizens Coinage Advisory Committee, which has opposed placing a living president on coins; critics and some coin collectors also oppose the move.
