In the lower centre of the field, a half vinyl record is shown, accompanied by a facsimile of Elvis Presley's official autograph. The word MEMORIES and the legend ELVIS PRESLEY appear within the design, evoking the artistic style associated with the artist's celebrated career. |

| Additional information |
Gibraltar has issued commemorative crowns under royal effigy for decades, exploiting its status as a British Overseas Territory to produce collector pieces that no major mint would sanction. The Elvis Presley licensing rights have passed through several hands since his 1977 death, and by the 2020s were controlled by Authentic Brands Group, which aggressively monetizes the estate across consumer categories — coins included.
Gold-plated copper-nickel at this specification is the workhorse format of the Gibraltar commemorative program. These do not circulate.
