David Bowie Mugshot – 1 Troy Ounce .999 Fine Silver Round
Celebrity Mugshots Series
Description:
Introducing the inaugural release in the new Celebrity Mugshots Series from Intaglio Mint — a collection that captures some of the most recognizable figures in popular culture through the lens of their infamous booking photographs.
This first release features legendary musician David Bowie, commemorating his well-known 1976 Rochester, New York arrest photograph. The obverse recreates the iconic mugshot with remarkable detail, complete with booking placard, height chart, arrest date, and fingerprint motif. The design transforms a historic moment into a striking numismatic tribute while preserving the unmistakable presence and style that made Bowie a cultural icon.
The reverse serves as the common design for the series, featuring handcuffs, vintage booking camera, police badge, and layered fingerprint textures symbolizing the criminal identification process. Future releases in the Celebrity Mugshots Series will share this reverse, creating a cohesive collection for enthusiasts of music, film, history, and pop culture.
Struck entirely in-house by Intaglio Mint from .999 fine silver, each round is produced using traditional minting methods and finished to showcase the depth and detail of the original sculpt.
