| Reverse description | The reverse features a vivid color-printed depiction of Elton John seated at a grand piano, rendered in a dynamic and celebratory artistic style referencing his iconic 1973 album Goodbye Yellow Brick Road. A decorative piano keyboard motif runs along the lower portion of the field, framing the central image. Elton John's distinctive facsimile signature appears in cursive script above the main design element. The overall composition pays tribute to one of the most celebrated performances and recordings of the artist's career. |

| Additional information |
Elton John's "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" tour, which ran from 2018 to 2023, became the highest-grossing concert tour in history at the time of its conclusion, exceeding $900 million in revenue. Gibraltar has issued commemorative crowns under royal warrant since the 1970s and has a long history of celebrity and pop-culture licensing that sits well outside the priorities of most national minting programs.
