The Australian Perth mint has released this rather intriguing memorabilia trinket. 99% pure silver 1oz medallion. The ALIEN cover art on one side, Her Majesty The Queen on the back lol....

Licenced by FOX and limited to 5000....and also apparently legal tender on the Polynesian island of Tuvala. You guys are awesome!

LOL! Alien will outlive any Ruler so the $115 might be worth it. Here is Her Majesty's side of the coin- rectangular? Thanks for the share!

yeah not sure about the rectangular design, it looks like a little iPhone lol

Would have been cool with an Alien Queen head effigy....but then it wouldn't be able to be used as legal tender I guess.

I dont' know im confused on that lol. Here's a riddle...…. You pay $100 for a $1 coin and then trade it for corn-bread do you get $1 or $100 worth of corn-bread in return XD

Also, the corn bread should be counted as rations for crew members thus no charge.

Seriously, the coin should not be offered to citizens of North Sentinel Island. They don't seem to GAF about outsiders let alone trinkets.

Ultimately, I would want to know if the 1 dollar would be legal tender outside an Alien Convention. "You are a dollar short for your pair of shoes. Do you have a rectangular Alien Coin I can fit into the till?" Expensive either way.
