The modern era of American alien mythology took shape in 1947 with the infamous Roswell incident. That summer, a New Mexico rancher stumbled upon strange debris, prompting military involvement. Though officials insisted it was a weather balloon, speculation about a crashed flying saucer and extraterrestrial bodies quickly gained traction. This event laid the foundation for UFO culture, feeding Cold War anxieties and merging with the emerging space age to solidify extraterrestrial lore in the American imagination.

The obverse of 2024 Proof Colorized Samoa Silver Aliens comes with a depiction of the national seal of Samoa. This design shows a shield similar to that of the United Nations, with a single palm tree set against stylized ocean waves and the Southern Cross constellation. The shield is topped by a Christian cross.

On the reverse of 2024 1 oz Proof Colorized Silver Aliens, you will find a depiction of two menacing alien figures. This year’s design shows two armed aliens, a design that plays on the fear in some communities that the existence of alien life could lead to a possible armed confrontation between interplanetary species. The design includes selective red colorization.
