For the

40th anniversary of the cult sci-fi film Alien

, the Perth Mint struck this

rectangular silver coin in color

.
In the pantheon of memorable movies, Alien is a true classic. Kick-starting a compelling series of science fiction horror features, the 1979 release confronted the worst imaginable scenario in space - being stalked and slain by an aggressive and terrifying extra-terrestrial. Directed by Ridley Scott and starring Sigourney Weaver, Alien won a raft of honours, including Academy Award (Oscar) for Visual Effects.  The one ounce silver coin depicts the original Alien movie poster from 1979 in color.
Credited to graphic designers Philip Gips and Steve Frankfurt, the poster’s focal point is an egg which references the oval pods from which alien life first emerged in the presence of Nostromo’s landing party. The artwork includes sinister green-yellow light and the unforgettably ominous line: "In space no one can hear you scream."
The coin’s obverse features the Ian Rank-Broadley effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, the monetary denomination "1 DOLLAR" and the 2019 year-date.
The

40th Anniversary Alien silver coin

is housed in a clear latex display case with a black frame. It's packaged within a themed shipper and accompanied by a numbered certificate of authenticity.
