Anybody know the North American catalog number of this?!

RCA(C) continued to press 78's into early 1960; I forget the artist & title, 
but I own
an RCA Victor 78 with a "K" prefixed matrix number (thus 1960!). I also own 
a
couple of VERY late Elvis 78's (can't recall the titles, though?!). For 
whatever
reason, I dimly recall having "...Stung" on 78...?!
