File:ArturKappPostCardUSSR1978cropped.jpg

Per prior consensus stamps (or other payment documents) in Russia are non-eligible for copyright but only as a whole subject. When they are cropped, they become covered by copyright protection. In this case the image is cropped from an otherwise PD postal cover. To quote the law in Russia, "“This Russian official document, state symbol or sign (postage stamps, coins and banknotes mainly) may incorporate one or more works that can be copyrightable if separated from this document, symbol or sign." So the image is covered by copyrighted since it is separated from the original document.

I'm nominating the following images for deletion for the same reason:

• File:Jaan Koort portrait.jpg
• File:Pavel Batitsky (cropped).png
• File:Pyotr Koshevoy (cropped).jpg
• File:Postal cover of the Soviet Union. 1972. August Kirchenstein-100 (Portrait).png

• File:Postal cover of the USSR. Riga. Lenin street. Fragment.png
• File:Postal cover. Riga-89. 65 years old with the name of V. I. Lenin. Fragment.png
• File:Stamp 1983, Shvejk.jpg
