Washington | US paper currency will bear President Donald Trump’s signature starting later this year, the first time a sitting president has signed American money, the Treasury Department said on Thursday (Friday AEDT).
The redesigned notes, planned to mark the 250th anniversary of American independence, will also, for the first time in 165 years, drop the signature of the US treasurer, who oversees the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, the US Mint and other Treasury functions.
