Cynthia Milk Benefit Concert
This coin commemorates Elvis’ performance at the Cynthia Milk Benefit Concert in July 1956. Held at Russwood Park in Memphis, Tennessee, the concert was attended by more than 7,000 fans, many of whom had been waiting since early morning to get spots in the front row. Over 100 performers played that day, but when Elvis’ car arrived, many of the girls surrounded it. During his performance, Elvis gave away a $600 gold ring with his initials on it in diamonds.
All of the proceeds of the concert, about $13,500, went to the Cynthia Milk Fund (which benefits needy infants and babies) and the Variety Club’s Home for Convalescent Children.
