Is this another grift? ...

It says it's free, but I have to believe that Trump approved the use of his image for some monetary incentive.

Consider the source. Those coins probably cost a few bucks to make. The Convicted Felon doesn’t give things away for free. There has to be a grift in this somewhere

After looking at the order form, I believe it's when you buy multiples.
How much do you think it costs to create this coin?
Plus the Add-On's Magnet.

Brass ingots weigh about 17.5# and can be purchased for a bit over $2 per pound for yellow brass (lower copper, higher zinc). Red brass is a bit more, but these coins look like yellow brass.
By the look of these coins, I'm going to guess one ounce each.
So, there is probably 10-15 cents of brass in each coin.
Be surprised if these coins cost more than a buck to make. Perhaps less.
