# CNS16011 - Elvis Presley Gold "Return to Sender" US Half Dollar Commemorative Coin
Elvis Presley is rightly called the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll. He is credited with 54 certified gold singles – more than any other recording artist ever! This coin highlights one of those songs that sold at least 500,000 copies.
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.
Return to Sender
In 1962, Elvis released “Return to Sender,” which quickly became a smash hit. The song is about a man who mails a letter of apology to his girlfriend after an argument, and the letter gets returned in spite of his numerous attempts. This hit, recorded in March 1962, peaked at number two on the American Billboard chart and number one in the United Kingdom. It was the “Christmas number one song” in Ireland. After selling over one million copies in the United States, the single was certified “Platinum.”
The song has special meaning for stamp collectors, too. The US Postal Service issued a commemorative Elvis Presley postage stamp on January 8,1993. Many collectors mailed envelopes with this stamp to false addresses so the letter could be marked with “return to sender.”
