Undeleting File:Ragusian libertine.jpg

Ten years ago, you deleted File:Ragusian libertine.jpg because of a lack of licensing information. The article Ragusian libertine says that the coin was only issued between 1791 and 1795, so that the image would not be covered by copyright. If you can, please undelete the image so that it can be added to the article Ragusian libertine. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 07:56, 8 May 2023 (UTC)

@Eastmain Having looked at the deleted content, the licensing concerns weren't about the subject (the coins are, as you say, out of copyright) but with the authorship of the image itself. The photo has a copyright but no source nor author were given so there was no way to see if the photo itself is public domain or appropriately licenced. Nthep (talk) 12:00, 8 May 2023 (UTC)
