Elvis Presley $10 commemrative coin

Elvis Presley $10 Commemorative Coin The Story of the Elvis Presley $10 Commemorative Coin brass coin is legal tender of the Republic of the Marshall Islands, which, along with the rest of the world, recognizes the extraordinary contributions Elvis made to the world of music. The obverse of the coin pays tribute to the King and features a stunning, life-like portrait of Elvis as a young rocker. On the reverse of the coin is the national seal of the Marshall Islands, which appears on all its coinage. The motto, "Jepilpilin Ke Ejukaan," means "Accomplishment through Joint Effort," and the design centers on the nation's symbol, the Spirit Bird of Peace. Above the Bird, the 24-point Sunstar with a diagonal line on either side represents the nation's flag and two chains of islands. The Marshall Islands, granted complete independence by the U.S. in 1986, is proud to pay homage to the man whose music is heard around the globe on the 40th Anniversary of his first record.
