Deleted: per nomination. You can barely see some of the coins, the youngest ones I can recognize are Kobo coins that were issued in 1973; later re-issues using different metals had the same designs. The medallist for those was apparently Englishman Geoffrey Colley (born 1934), who probably died over the last few years; his website geoffcolley.com is offline. Per Commons:Copyright rules by territory/Nigeria, these coins are most likely "made by or under the direction or control of the Government, a State authority or prescribed international body" and protected for 70 years after publication, so the coin designs are free in Nigeria in 2044 and 2069 in the US (because of the URAA, {{PD-US-GovEdict}} unfortunately does not seem to apply to coins). --Rosenzweig τ 16:28, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
