| Additional information |
Issued as part of the Royal Mint's Music Legends series, this piece belongs to a run of collector gold that the Mint launched in 2019 specifically to target the premium commemorative market rather than any circulation function. Elton John was the second artist in the series, following David Bowie. The .9999 fineness — finer than the standard Britannia gold specification — was a deliberate commercial choice to align with comparable fine gold products from other world mints competing in the same collector tier.
Mintage was capped at 350 pieces.
