Elton John is top-five all-time in most albums sold globally, with 300 million records sold. His single "Candle in the Wind" is his most successful release.

In 1997, Elton John sang the song at the funeral of his friend Diana, Princess of Wales. A hat, a bow tie, and glasses in the form of a note-a traditional stage costume of the quirky performer on the reverse of the coin. Also used in the pattern is the inscription 'ELTON JOHN' and a section of the British flag.The coin is produced using one troy ounce of .999 fine silver, like most other British Silver Coins.The obverse features the most recent portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, designed by Jody Clark and unveiled in 2015.
