- Each card is being sold for $99, however for customers who purchase the entire set of 47 cards for $4,653, they will also receive a physical collectible card in the mail including 1 piece (of 2024 pieces) of the infamous blue suit and red tie Trump wore when the now famous 'mugshot' photo was taken. This innovative approach to NFTs combines physical memorabilia with digital ownership, a concept that is relatively new in the world of digital assets.
