The Detroit Pistons were founded in 1941 as the Fort Wayne Zollner Pistons in the National Basketball League. The team was named for owner Fred Zollner’s piston manufacturing company and joined the Basketball Association of America in 1948. When the BAA merged with the NBL in 1949, the franchise became part of the NBA and later relocated to Detroit in 1957, where it remains today.

Known for their tough, physical brand of basketball, the Pistons built their reputation on defense and teamwork. The “Bad Boys” era of the late 1980s, followed by the “Goin’ to Work” teams of the 2000s, embodied the city’s blue-collar identity and work ethic rooted in Detroit’s industrial history.

The obverse of the NBA Detroit Pistons Silver Round showcases the team’s modern logo. Simple and bold, it features a basketball at the center with the franchise name displayed prominently—a minimalist design that reflects the team’s straightforward, hard-nosed style.

The reverse of the 1 oz Detroit Pistons Silver Round features the official NBA logo, depicting a basketball player dribbling within a rectangular frame. This clean, timeless image has symbolized the league’s identity for over fifty years.
