Donald Trump's face will feature on an Israeli coin marking the 70th anniversary of the country's independence.

It depicts the US President alongside the biblical King Cyrus, who allowed the Jews to return to Jerusalem 2,500 years ago.

The coin, which cannot be used as currency, is also a token of gratitude for Mr Trump's decision to move the US embassy from to Jerusalem, KOBI reported.

Nonprofit organisation The Mikdash Educational Center has made 1,000 of the half-shekel celebratory coins.

The standard version, made from pewter and plated with silver, will be sold for £36.

There is also a limited series of gold-plated coins which will sell for £52.

'President Trump is starting a prophetic process by moving the American Embassy to Jerusalem,' Mikdash representative Rabbi Mordechai Persoff told KOBI.

'Just like King Cyrus 2,500 years ago said, "he charged me to build a house in Jerusalem", here again, President Trump is building a house in Jerusalem.'

The seal of the United States government also features on the face of the coin, along with biblical verses written in in Hebrew.

On the back is a dove, holding an olive branch in its beak, above a temple.
