The page on Sveriges Riksbank only talks about banknotes and not coins. /Daniel78 21:29, 8 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Looking at the previous deletion discussion, it looks as though the Riksbanken page may have changed. In any case, you would have to demonstrate that the coin is not protected by copyright or that its copyright holder has issued a license compatible with CC-by-sa for it.

Sveriges Riksbank also provide high resolution images of the current coins without mentioning copyright, like at here. I'll write a mail and ask to see if I get any information about it, I can't see any clear message one way or the other now regarding coins on their homepage. It would be great to know for future discussions as well. /Daniel78 21:48, 8 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Reply from riksbanken

[edit]

In Swedish:

Det gäller i princip samma regler för mynt som för sedlar. Då du redan hittat sidan som diskuterar efterbildning av sedlar har du säkert också sett att det inte finns några svenska regler som anger hur sedlar & mynt kan efterbildas utan att efterbildningen kan komma att falla under brottsbalkens bestämmelser. Du har antagligen också sett att Riksbanken varken kan godkänna eller avslå begäran om tillstånd att efterbilda sedlar & mynt då det alltid finns en risk för att efterbildningen kan komma att användas i bedrägligt syfte, d.v.s. som en penningförfalskning. Vad som är otillåtet bestäms ytterst av åklagare och domstol.

Till ovanstående kan läggas frågekomplexet med att efterbildningar utan tillstånd kan komma att strida mot den konstnärliga upphovrätten, designers/gravörers immateriella rättigheter. Det finns pågående rättsliga processer gällande sådana frågor.

Short summary: The same rules apply for coins as for banknotes. Thus not allowed.

Riksbanken's reply focuses mostly on the possibility of counterfeit, which is not a concern of ours because a copyright licence is never to be understood as an authorisation to create works that violate the law. Even ignoring those concerns, though, the most important point here is that Riksbanken notes that "unauthorised copying may violate the artistic copyright and the immaterial rights of designers and engravers." In other words, they do not feel that they are even authorised to sublicense the work. LX (talk, contribs) 17:59, 23 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
