The US Mint does make flat metal discs that it doesn’t call coins. They are called medals and have an entry in that glossary:
But yes, everything issued by the US mint with a face value on it can be spent at that face value.
Look at that Superman one, for example. At one ounce it is the same size as a classic silver dollar. But since it does not have a face value, it is not called a coin.
It almost makes me sad that there isn’t one for Gort.

First, oh thank God for that link, @Dewey_Finn. Thank you for providing some element of sanity back into things.
Second, I guarantee that if his Royal Flatulence gets the Mint anyone to make ‘Trump Commemorative Coins’ or ‘Commemorative Medals’ they will be snatched up by him to “award” to his followers. They had a dress rehearsal for this with that Melania movie.

Still standing on my “Nope.”
If you stick that coin into Melania at a super market, does anyone know how long she rides up and down…?
