Elvis Presley took the world by storm almost overnight with his deep, soulful voice and his wild, iconic stage presence. By 1958, 12 of his songs had reached the Top 10, 8 had gone to Number 1 and it wasn’t long before he was regarded to be of the most famous and notable personalities of the twentieth century!
This unique coin features an original photograph of Elvis Presley mid energetic performance with guitar in hand to represent one of his more energetic double sided hits - Don't Be Cruel & Hound Dog! The term “double-sided hit” has no meaning in the current digital music age. It was a phenomenon of the vinyl record era of the past century, making an artist’s release a double release. The most successful two-sided hit on Billboard’s Top 100 chart was Don’t Be Cruel / Hound Dog. The two titles spent a combined 55 weeks in the Top 100 from 1956 to 1957. No other artist in the rock era, not even The Beatles, had a double-sided hit that could challenge the cumulative chart performance of this one. The struck section of the coin depicts a music staff which ribbons down the left-hand side towards the hand holding the iconic 1960’s microphone. At the bottom centre of the coin, half a vinyl record is shown with the official Elvis Presley signature.
