This is a reproduction of a
unit of currency
from
Latvia
. Per Latvian law all units of currency that were no longer in circulation by 1 May 2004 are in public domain per
the copyright law of 1993
and the copyright law of 2000. Per 2004 amendments of
Latvian copyright law, Chapter IV, section 17
1
, the economic copyrights do not apply to currency, however reproductions are allowed either 1.) if written permission is obtained or 2.) criteria for reproduction set by issuing national bank or country are met. Per
Bank of Latvia copyright statement
, requirements in
Regulation for Reproducing the Lats Banknotes and Coins
must be met when reproducing lats coins and
Reproduction rules of European Central Bank
must be met when reproducing euro coins. In both cases the criteria limit reproduction of coins as actual objects (i.e. tokens, medals etc.), which could be mistaken for genuine coins, but have no requirements for images that are flat (i.e. drawings, paintings, photographs, etc).
