Donald Trump will become the first sitting US president to have his signature featured on American paper currency, with redesigned banknotes scheduled to enter production this summer.
The US Treasury Department confirmed on Thursday that the president's signature will be printed alongside that of Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent. The redesign breaks a 165-year precedent by entirely removing the signature of the US Treasurer, an official who reports directly to the Treasury Secretary and oversees operations including the Bureau of Engraving and Printing and the US Mint.
