This is an auction scan from American Numismatic Rarities [1]. As a U.S. coin, the design is in the public domain, and per WP:IUP: &quot;Also note that in the United States, reproductions of two-dimensional artwork which is in the public domain because of age do not generate a new copyright — for example, a straight-on photograph of the Mona Lisa would not be considered copyrighted (see Bridgeman v. Corel). Scans of images alone do not generate new copyrights — they merely inherit the copyright status of the image they are reproducing.&quot; Since this is simply a straight-on photo or scan, with no creative aspect involved, it should not be subject to copyright as per this precedent.</p><p><br /></p><p>[edit][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
