Elvis Presley is rightly called the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll. As a real Elvis fan, you love capturing your favorite historic moments from the life of the original American idol. This coin preserves one of your favorite Elvis memories
Mystic has permanently bonded a vibrant image of Elvis to this uncirculated US Half Dollar. The coin features an original photograph of Presley from his estate’s official archives and is officially licensed by Elvis Presley Enterprises.
First Ever Recording Session
On July 18, 1953, Elvis drove his delivery truck to the Memphis Recording Service, part of the Sun Record Company. He paid $3.98 to record two double-sided demos of “My Happiness” and “That’s When Your Heartaches Begin.” Reportedly, Elvis did these recordings as a late birthday present for his mother. However, it’s also been suggested that he simply went to the studio to be discovered by Sun owner Sam Phillips.
Sam Phillips was out of the office that day. But his assistant, Marion Keisker, was there and was so impressed that she flipped another machine on and taped the session. She wrote, “Good ballad singer – Hold” next to his name and phone number. Soon after, Sam called Elvis to sit in on a recording session and Rock and Roll history was made.
