Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the "Love Me Tender" coin is that it features a unique heart-shaped design, which sets it apart from other coins in the Elizabeth II series. The heart shape is a nod to the famous Elvis Presley song of the same name, which was released in 1956 and became a hit single for the King of Rock and Roll. The coin's design combines the traditional portrait of Queen Elizabeth II with a stylized heart motif, creating a distinctive and eye-catching collectible piece.
