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 Public Performance
Elvis Presley was 10 years old when his fifth-grade teacher asked for volunteers to say a prayer for the class. When it was Elvis’ turn, he prayed and then sang the country song “Old Shep.” His teacher, Mrs. Oleta Grimes, later recalled, “He sang it so sweetly.” She took Elvis to the principal so he could hear the young boy sing. The principal shared Mrs. Grimes’ enthusiasm and immediately signed Elvis up for the upcoming children’s talent contest at the annual Mississippi-Alabama Fair and Dairy Show.
On October 3, 1945, Elvis stood on a chair to reach the microphone and once again sang “Old Shep.” The talent show was broadcast over the local radio station in his first public performance.
