Sorry, but these coins were still protected by copyright in the Netherlands on 1 January 1996, so the copyright protection in the United States lasts for 95 years since publication due to the annoying URAA rule. All Commons files have to be freely licensed in the United States.

 Delete. Additionally, the photographs themselves are probably eligible for separate copyright. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag#Photograph of an old coin found on the Internet and en:Wikipedia talk:Non-free content/Archive 25#Photographs of ancient coins for more information. --Rrburke (talk) 20:20, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Transfer notes: Not transferred to Wikilivres Canada. Although the currency designs themselves are PD in Canada, the photographs (which were apparently not taken by the uploader?) are probably not. Dcoetzee (talk) 02:50, 6 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
