With over 500 million records sold globally, there is little question that Elvis Presley is one of the most successful and influential music stars in history. Presley took off in the mid 1950s thanks to his unique Rockabilly sound that combined elements of both Country music and Rhythm & Blues. Besides music, Elvis also served in the army and had a brief stint as a Hollywood actor. Now, 2018 1 oz Silver Elvis Presley Medals are available to you for purchase online at Silver.com.

It can be difficult to fathom just how influential Elvis Presley has been not just to rock and roll, but to pop culture in general. He revolutionized music as both an art form and a business. He was also one of the very first modern celebrities, which both propelled him to unimaginable heights and also spelled his precipitous fall. The Guinness World Records recognizes Elvis as the all-time most successful solo performing artist. He posthumously received the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2018.
Elvis is depicted on the obverse of 2018 1 oz Elvis Presley Medals. This image is a replica of a 1950s black and white photograph and features the King of Rock & Roll with slicked-back hair and a leather jacket. Behind him, we see a checker pattern, while gilded elements include his signature and .9999 Fine Silver 1 oz Troy.
A vinyl record design is shown on the reverse side of 2018 Silver Elvis Presley Medals. While most people stream their music online today, when Elvis was alive his fans often listened to his hits using vinyl records on turntables. In the middle is the Elvis estate’s Signature Product logo with both the singer in silhouette and an image of his autograph.
All 2018 Elvis Presley Medals in this listing are delivered to you in protective plastic slabs from the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation.
