About the Piece
Days after winning the 2016 presidential election, Donald Trump appeared in a new red cap. “MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN” was gone; in its place was a single word — “USA” — with 45 embroidered on the side for the presidency he was about to enter. The hat later became official merchandise and remained part of Trump’s visual identity through his first term.
After his return to the White House, the design evolved with him. The current hat keeps USA across the front and the American flag on one side, while 45 becomes 45–47 on the other, marking Trump as the 45th and 47th President of the United States. Spectres recreates that updated hat as a fully three-dimensional silver collectible, preserving the version associated with his return to office.
Its release in 2026 is deliberate. The United States marks 250 years since the Declaration of Independence this year, and the USA Hat records a distinctly contemporary American object at that milestone. A piece of presidential merchandise made to be worn becomes a permanent object in silver — USA across the front, 45–47 at the side, preserved at the beginning of America’s next 250 years.

How is this a coin?
- A coin is defined by its official issuance, not by its physical shape. This piece is formally issued as legal tender by a sovereign issuing authority, with an official denomination and year of issue.
- Money and coinage have also taken unconventional forms throughout history, including ancient Chinese knife- and spade-shaped money. Spectres continues that idea in modern legal tender, where a coin may be round, shaped, functional, sculptural or fully three-dimensional.
