Music Legend, David Bowie, features on a UK coin!
As a global sensation with record sales estimated at over 100 million — making him one of the best-selling music artists of all time — it seems only fitting that Bowie is one of the Music Legends to feature in The Royal Mint’s £5 series.
The Design
Acclaimed artist, Jody Clark has created a reverse design inspired by the late 1970’s period of Bowie’s life, when the star lived and recorded in Berlin.
A dynamic lightning bolt motif from the Aladdin Sane era sits behind the portrait of Bowie as he sheds his various personae to reinvent himself — a skill which he continued to perfect for decades to come.
Superior Collector Quality
Your UK Music Legend £5 has been struck to superior Brilliant Uncirculated quality — the standard favoured among collectors — and protectively encapsulated in official Change Checker packaging to preserve its quality forever.
