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.
First Las Vegas Performance
On April 23, 1956, a 21-year-old Elvis Presley made his Las Vegas debut at the New Frontier nightclub. After two years of performing before screaming, adoring teenagers, the audience he tried to win over in Vegas was very different. Billed as “The Atomic Powered Singer,” Elvis was part of a show that featured a comedian and band. His 12-minute performance was met with indifference, a reaction Elvis wasn’t used to. Elvis’s two-week stint in Vegas proved to be his last there for quite a while. The audience just wasn’t ready for the likes of Presley.
