Trump and Dana White at UFC Freedom 250
As UFC Freedom 250 officially begins, Trump and Dana White arrive cageside.
The White House’s Freedom 250 UFC bout may be firmly in the rearview mirror, but fans can still pick up commemorative coins valued at nearly $12,000.
Ahead of the June 14 fight card, the Trump family promoted a series of commemorative coins produced by Real Trump Coins. Real Trump Coins is an independent company with multiple licensing agreements with the original family business of the same name.
Here’s what you need to know about commemorative coins, including their prices.
From $250 to $12,000
According to the Real Trump Coin website, medallions range in price from $249.99 to $11,999.99 and are still available for purchase. All objects feature the president’s profile on one side and the 250th anniversary emblem on the other.
The cheapest option is 1 oz of silver at $249.99. Comes in a protective holder with the UFC Freedom 250 logo on the top. The same design and packaging graces the 5-ounce silverware, priced at $1,324.99.
The one-tenth ounce of gold costs $1,499.99 and features portraits of Trump and UFC president and CEO Dana White on the top of the protective case. The main event, however, is the 1-ounce gold medallion, which retails for $11,999.99 in the same package.
As of June 15, an ounce of gold was trading for an average of $4,000 to $4,500, according to the American Bullion Exchange.
According to the Real Trump Coin website, it will take four to six weeks for UFC coins to be shipped.
Real Trump Coins did not respond to inquiries from USA TODAY about whether the Freedom 250 x UFC coins would be permanently displayed in its shops or how many coins were sold before fight cards.
What is a real Trump coin?
The medallion was created by Real Trump Coins, an independent venture that licenses Trump’s likeness from an organization of the same name run by his two adult sons, Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump.
The Trump Organization did not immediately respond to USA TODAY’s request for comment about the coin.
Real Trump Coins says all of its precious metals are minted in the United States and that Trump personally designed the coins.
Reviews of several other coins available on the company’s website are mostly positive, with buyers calling the products “stunning,” “beautiful,” and “amazing.”
Some people said they didn’t receive the products they ordered and couldn’t get a refund. One person described the engraving on the coin as “mediocre at best”, adding: “The price gouging is grotesque.”
What’s in the name?
Real Trump Coin is not affiliated with the government or the presidential administration, but Trump and his allies have renamed several institutions after the president.
A list previously compiled by USA TODAY includes:
- american banknotes: Although not his name, President Trump’s signature will be added to all future U.S. banknotes, starting with the $100 bill, the U.S. Treasury announced on March 26, marking the first time in history that a sitting president’s signature will appear on a U.S. bill. Trump’s name will replace the name of the U.S. Treasury secretary, one of two signatures currently appearing on U.S. currency. The other is the signature of the Secretary of the Treasury.
- commemorative gold coin: This option featuring his image is part of a series of coins the U.S. Mint is producing to celebrate America’s 250th anniversary this year.
- National Park Service: Part of NPS’s 2026 annual “America the Beautiful” pass design includes a portrait of President Trump next to a portrait of George Washington.
- President Trump’s account: As part of the Republican tax plan passed in July, infants born between January 1, 2025 and December 31, 2028 will be given a $1,000 contribution to a savings account that grows with the stock market. The program was once known as “MAGA Accounts,” but was renamed to “Trump Accounts” during the legislative process.
- Trump Rx: A prescription drug government website aimed at helping Americans buy medicines at lower prices launched in February, with President Trump calling it a “huge deal” that will help people “save a lot of money and get healthy.”
