Obverse
The obverse face of the 2020 Proof British Music Legends Elton John 1/2 oz Silver Coin bears the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II. Her Majesty is shown here in right-profile relief with the George IV State Diadem Crown on her head. This design was created in July 2015 by Jody Clark and is the fifth-generation effigy of the Queen during her long reign as Queen of England.
Reverse
On the reverse side of the 2020 Proof British Music Legends Elton John Coins is a depiction of the famous boater cap, glasses, and bow tie that showcased Johns flamboyant style of dress and his stage presence during performances. Also included on this side of the coin is the Union Jack as a backdrop for the design.
History
It is hard to think of another legend of British music who has had a closer relationship with the monarchy. Elton Johns tribute single Candle in the Wind was rewritten shortly after its development in dedication to the recently-deceased Diana, Princess of Wales. He performed the song live during the funeral of Princess Diana at Westminster Abbey in 1997, and has also performed for the monarchy at the Party at the Palace in 2002 and the Diamond Jubilee Concert for the Queen in 2012.
