Copyright lasts only until 70 years after the death of the designer of the coin. Therefore, if enough is known, it can happen that pictures of one specific coin (actually, any coin designed by a specific artist, died before 1939) are ok. And old coins (like 19th century) are always ok --Manu (talk) 15:49, 10 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I also believe that modern french coins (pre-Euro) are copyrighted by the artist and not free. However there are lots of them in Category:Coins of France with wrong licenses, like {{PD-self}}, creative commons, GNU etc. Sv1xv (talk) 17:45, 10 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
 Delete; this coin was definitely not in circulation for even 20 years, clearly copyright. Stifle (talk) 16:07, 7 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
