Reverse description The reverse presents a finely sculpted high-relief portrait of Elvis Presley in three-quarter view, depicted as a young performer holding a vintage ribbon microphone in his left hand, his characteristic pompadour hairstyle rendered with exceptional detail. The portrait occupies the majority of the plectrum-shaped field, conveying a dynamic sense of the performer's stage presence. A facsimile of Elvis Presley's cursive signature appears in the upper left field, incuse against the polished background. No additional border or frame separates the design from the edge of the coin.

Additional information

Gibraltar has built a cottage industry around celebrity licensing, and this piece sits in that tradition — Elvis Presley remains one of the most commercially active deceased entertainers on the planet, with Authentic Brands Group managing the estate's licensing across dozens of product categories since acquiring it in 2013. The plectrum format is an unusual departure from standard disc flans and presents real minting challenges: striking a non-circular gold flan evenly without edge distortion requires adjusted collar tooling.
