  • The State Department is finalising this 'radical redesign' as part of plans to commemorate the United States’ 250th anniversary, with issuance expected this summer.
  • A State Department official confirmed that passports featuring the President's face will be the default from the Washington Passport Agency for in-person renewals.

  • Other initiatives include plans for a $1 gold coin and commemorative 24-karat gold coin bearing his image, and his signature on American paper currency.
