Some people might be happy with the offer of a limited edition Donald Trump coin, but J.K. Rowling is not one of those people.

On Monday afternoon, not long after she'd blasted Trump on Twitter for his use of shouty capital letters, the Harry Potter author received a strange offer.

Apparently, to "CELEBRATE TRUMP'S VICTORY OVER THE NAY-SAYERS", Rowling was being offered a coin with Donald Trump's face on it.

Unsurprisingly, her response was less than enthusiastic.

Twitter was fascinated by the idea of the coin.

Ultimately, though, this person had the best suggestion.

Any takers?
