But, on the chance that you do get one, a handy chisel could remove the t in trust.

I will not accept it, period.

(53,616 posts)Go to your favorite craft store and purchase a Silicone Mold Making Kit. Make a Trump Coin mold, then cast some Trump Coins in gallium. Spray paint them gold. Go to a place where MAGA congregates - lottery desks at gas stations, smoke shops, gun stores, that kind of thing - and scatter a few gallium Trump Coins around where people can see them.
What'll happen is the MAGAs will pick up the coins to marvel at the intricate portrait of their favorite president, and while they're bragging that Biden was never on a coin the 85.58°F melting point of gallium will cause the coins to turn liquid in their hands.

So go ahead and throw them in the dumpster or put them on a railroad track. That will just make the one I may get more valuable.
The best way to not increase the value of it is just treat it like any other form of currency.
I'm sure as hell not going to throw away one of the new $100 bills that Trump's signature on it. That would be stupid just because I didn't vote for him.
