The 1-krone coin was put into circulation on 26. january 1993, thus still copyrighted. 87.49.146.171 10:38, 17 April 2025 (UTC)

Note that this is a photo taken in Thailand, even if this is a Danish krone coin (but I doubt this is the coin of 1993, as it appears to be minted in 2007). Can a low-resolution and blurry photo, taken with slight angular deformation, of a foreign coin found circulating in Thailand, be subject to copyright protection ? The photo is insufficient to create fake coins (but may be it should have an unremovable "FAC SIMILE" message applied over it, with some half-transparent blurring of the background still visible through its letters). verdy_p (talk) 10:40, 17 April 2025 (UTC)

I found this Danish official statement (see nationalbanken.dk):

Danmarks Nationalbank’s guidelines for the reproduction of coins

Unlike what is the case with banknotes, there are no special guidelines for the reproduction of coins as long as the coins are not reproduced on or in materials that could be mistaken for genuine coins.

Details and parts of the design of a coin may not be reproduced independently from the rest of the coin. When reproducing coins, you should also be aware that state symbols and portraits of the Queen may not be reproduced without the permission of the Danish National Archives and the Court, respectively.

As I think this statement is useful, I added it in the image description page, at top of the "Conditions of use" section, just before the licence given by the author for the photo. verdy_p (talk) 10:52, 17 April 2025 (UTC)

Obviously it's the series that started circulating in 1993 and this one minted in 2007, they're still in use (as seen here on the website of the national bank Danish banknotes and coins today), although design changes pending due to Frederik X the son of Margrethe II of Denmark becoming king last year. As you write, state symbols needs permission and this is insufficient to create fake coins, but this isn't the issue; the design is not just simple geometric shapes making it uneligible to copyright. 87.49.146.171 11:08, 17 April 2025 (UTC)

But the official statement says "as long as the coins are not reproduced on or in materials that could be mistaken for genuine coins". So this seems to levy the copyright restriction: a basic low-resolution and blurry photo cannot be used to fake genuine Danish coins, that photo is not on or in a suitable material. Is then a permission from the Danish National Archives required here for this state symbol ? (no need of a permission of the Danish Court, as there's no portrait of the Queen here.)

Note that the photo also includes a different coin at top, it is very blurry, and still unidentified (and probably it should be cropped out of the photo, separating the Danish krone on a different file if its authorized). verdy_p (talk) 11:20, 17 April 2025 (UTC)

As I understand it, the copyright of the design belong to the artist and the bank respectively. As it's still in use and the designer haven't been dead the required years, it's still copyrighted.

Hmm, the use of the crown used to be very restrictive, perhaps it's different under the new king. Longing for fair use to be implemented, although unlikely, to be able show various works of art on the danish wikipedia, but that's another matter :)

Don't know what you would do with the very blurry part of the image, be my guest to make use of it, as I can't imagine it being restricted when you can hardly see what it is. 87.49.146.171 11:42, 17 April 2025 (UTC)

I've identified the top part of the image (even if it's blurred, the text is decipherable). And found that this is a rare special edition of a commemorative 1 Indian Rupee coin, most likely minted in 2006. I found no other example of this coin on the web, except a description.

So in my opinion, this image should be cropped in two separate parts, one for each coin (each one with their own licencing conditions, as the restriction above only applies to the Danish coin at the bottom part of the image), but the top one should be rotated (and if it's uploaded, it could be overwritten with a newer clearer version, by asking to some Indian users interested in their commemorative coins). Note that the image uploader (User:Tris T7, alias "Trisorn Triboon" as the photographer name) is very active on Commons, and has administrative rights: he contributed lot of images related to the culture of Thailand, and to a local numismatic museum, but this image of "foreign" coins does not seem to come from this Thai museum and was probably taken during a touristic journey. All we did here is to make a better description, and this is how you then determined this image (uploaded in 2009) to be problematic and drove you to initiate this discussion today (6 years after the upload). The location where the photo was taken is not surprizing for a traveller, in a modern semi-urbanized area to the North of Bangkok, with around at least 4 national museums, 3 universities, various national institutes, and 4 international golf clubs, all around a major motorway. verdy_p (talk) 14:54, 17 April 2025 (UTC)

Sounds like a fine solution for the rupee. I don't see how long ago this image was uploaded, where a photo of it was taken nor who the uploader is has any relevance, if nobody was "driven" to determine "this image to be problematic" before, like thousands, or millions, unexamined other uploaded files on Commons. Note that english wikipedia has marked an image of the same Danish coin as a non-free image. 87.49.146.171 15:47, 17 April 2025 (UTC)

{{PD-Art}} applies only to 2D works (i.e. Pantoja's painting). However, that is not the case for 3D artifacts (the frame, and furnitures around the painting), for which we need permission from the photographer who created the image.
