  • On 17 January 2017, the liberal web site Addicting Info published a story with a headline that could be mistaken to mean that the Russian government had created a new piece of currency dedicated to incoming U.S. President Donald Trump: Russians Mint ‘In Trump We Trust’ Coin to Commemorate U.S. Inauguration. However, the body of the story revealed the fact that the coins were being manufactured and sold by a private Russian company, not minted by the Russian government and distributed as currency: The coins are being sold by Art-Grani, which is based in the Chelyabinsk region of Russia, just north of the Kazakhstan border. The silver coins weigh one kilogram and containing a profile of U.S. President-elect Donald J. Trump on the obverse, with a depiction of the Statue of Liberty along with the words In Trump We Trust in English lettering on the reverse. Customers can purchase the coin directly from Art-Grani's web site: The coins are clearly intended as commemorative keepsakes for the 45th U.S. president's inauguration and are not official Russian monetary currency. Art-Grani director Vladimir Vasyukhin told the Associated Press Television News that the price of the coins hasn't been determined but would be a few thousand dollars. (en)
