I think that is entirely in the hands of Congress. I'm not even sure if they need to ask Biden or if Biden could Coin as it is not his authority.
He can print non bank paper money though like Lincoln and Kennedy, although it didn't end well for them.
The Congress shall have Power To Art1Sec8C5
To coin Money, regulate the Value thereof, and of foreign Coin, and fix the Standard of Weights and Measures;
The purse was kept from the Executive branch.
