This is a faithful photographic reproduction of an original two-dimensional work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain in its source country for the following reason:
Public domainPublic domainfalsefalse
This image (or other media file) is in the public domain because its copyright has expired and its author is anonymous. This applies to the European Union and those countries with a copyright term of 70 years after the work was made available to the public and the author never disclosed their identity. Important: Always mention where the image comes from, as far as possible, and make sure the author never claimed authorship.
Note: In Germany and possibly other countries, certain anonymous works published before July 1, 1995 are copyrighted until 70 years after the death of the author. See Übergangsrecht. Please use this template only if the author never claimed authorship or their authorship never became public in any other way. If the work is anonymous or pseudonymous (e.g., published only under a corporate or organization's name), use this template for images published more than 70 years ago.For a work made available to the public in the United Kingdom, please use Template:PD-UK-unknown instead.
The work of art itself is in the public domain in the United States for the following reason:
to share – to copy, distribute and transmit the work
to remix – to adapt the work
Under the following conditions:
attribution – You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made. You may do so in any reasonable manner, but not in any way that suggests the licensor endorses you or your use.
share alike – If you remix, transform, or build upon the material, you must distribute your contributions under the same or compatible license as the original.
In many jurisdictions, faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are not copyrightable. The Wikimedia Foundation's position is that these works are not copyrightable in the United States (see Commons:Reuse of PD-Art photographs). In these jurisdictions, this work is actually in the public domain and the requirements of the above license are not compulsory.
This work depicts a denomination issued by the Czech National Bank, which is not subject to copyright protection as it is an official work and there is public interest in its exclusion from copyright protection. This does not necessarily apply on such coins which are not official works (privately issued commemorative coins etc.).
For intangible reproductions of banknotes, it is required that their resolution does not exceed 72 dots per inch and they are marked with the word “Specimen” printed diagonally in an opaque colour and in a layer that cannot be separated from the image of the banknote, with the length of the word being at least 75% of the longer side of the banknote and the height being at least 15% of the shorter side of the banknote (or with another word of the same dimensions and similar meaning). Intangible or nonmetallic images of coins may always be produced.
This file, either completely or in part, depicts a unit of currency. Its use may be subject to criminal counterfeiting law or other legal provisions outside of copyright law. Before you use this file, you have to ensure that such use is fully compliant with such laws. See our general disclaimer.
Size limitations on the reproduction of banknote images are determined by the Czech National Bank (CNB), established in 1993. The CNB was preceded by the State Bank of Czechoslovakia (1950–92), the National Bank of Czechoslovakia (1926–50), and the Banking Office of the Ministry of Finance (1919–26). The present image is of an obsolete banknote issued by the National Bank of Czechoslovakia (1926–50), and therefore the size restrictions for notes issued by the CNB do not apply.
