“特金会”纪念币 commemorative coin
Members of the White House Communications Agency, which provides a range of communications support to US presidents, created and issued a commemorative coin featuring Trump and Kim's likeness with the words "PEACE TALKS" above them.
白宫通信局成员制作并发布了一款纪念币,印有特朗普和金正恩的头像,上方有“和谈”二字。白宫通信局为美国总统提供通信支持。
纪念币(commemorative coin)的一面是特朗普与金正恩的侧脸,分别以两国国旗为背景;“和谈(peace talk)”两侧是两国国名,the United States of America以及Democratic People's Republic of Korea;两人侧脸头像的外围印有双方领导人的称谓,特朗普为President Donald J. Trump,金正恩为Supreme Leader Kim Jong-Un;另一面是特朗普专机空军一号以及白宫的画面。
不过,这枚纪念币并不是白宫参与定制的。
The coin -- which members of the White House Communications Agency create for every presidential trip abroad -- was not created or approved by the White House nor was it paid for using government funds.
这枚硬币并非白宫定制或批准,制作过程也没有使用政府资金。白宫通信办公室成员会为美国总统的每一次海外之行定制纪念币。
白宫副发言人拉吉·沙赫(White House deputy press secretary Raj Shah)表示:
"Since 2003, White House Communications Agency members have ordered a limited number of commercially designed and manufactured souvenir travel coins for purchase," Shah said. "These coins are designed, manufactured and made by an American coin manufacturer. These souvenir coins are only ordered after a trip has been publicly announced. The White House did not have any input into the design and manufacture of the coin."
自2003年以来,白宫通信局成员就开始订购一定数量的商业定制并生产的纪念旅行硬币,用来出售。这些硬币由一家美国硬币制造商设计并制作。纪念币只会在总统的行程公开以后才开始定制,白宫不会参与硬币设计和生产的任何环节。
