It is unclear if this item of currency or official token is currently in circulation. Please update the use of this tag if you have this information.

This restriction tag has been placed because currency designs and images of them may be subject to additional legal restrictions outside of copyright law including laws regarding counterfeiting, which may also apply, particularly when this image is used in printed form.

This template is not a valid license tag alone. Please accompany it with an appropriate license.

This image depicts an Australian Coin. Under Australian law, the Royal Australian Mint (the Mint) produces Australian Coins and controls use of their reproductions. The Mint's copyright policy states:

"The Commonwealth holds copyright in the designs and images used on Australian currency coins which were created after 1 May 1969. Copyright gives the copyright owner the exclusive right to reproduce designs and images from two-dimensional to three-dimensional form, and vice versa."

Reproductions of Australian Coins are subject to the following conditions:

"In certain circumstances the Mint may agree to allow members of the public to reproduce coin designs in which it holds copyright. ... If you wish to reproduce coin designs you should contact the Mint. Failure to do so may result in a breach of copyright and legal action by the Mint."

For further information, see: Royal Australian Mint: Using coin designs.

It is believed that using this image:

for commentary or criticism relating to the image or to the design of the coin itself,
for identification of the coin,
on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation

qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law, as such display does not significantly impede the right of the copyright holder to sell the copyrighted material, is not being used to generate profit in this context, and presents ideas that cannot be exhibited otherwise. Please see Wikipedia:Non-free content and fair use rationale.

Also, consider contacting the Royal Australian Mint to apply for licensing of this image.

To the uploader:

Please add a detailed fair use rationale for each use, as well as the source of the work and copyright information.
This tag should only be used for Australian coin images only, Do not use it for other purposes.

To patrollers and administrators: If this image has an 'appropriate' rationale please append |image has rationale=yes as a paramater to the license template.
