 * Reason:High quality scans of all the current banknotes of the Rupiah (including the 1k, which doesn't seem to be in production anymore). Can't let Godot have a category all to himself now, can we?
 * Articles in which this image appears:Indonesian rupiah, Banknotes of the Rupiah
 * FP category for this image:Featured pictures/Culture, entertainment, and lifestyle/Currency
 * Creator:Bank Indonesia, scanned by User:Crisco 1492

 * Comment: I'm a bit troubled by the licensing. These images cannot be both CC and PD (which is what, for instance, the categories currently suggest), as there are elements of CC which are not compatible with the PD. If, in scanning the notes, you have done enough to be able to claim copyright (which I don't think you have under US law), then the image is CC; if you haven't, and your claim about the licensing of banknote designs is correct (I'm happy to defer to you) then it's PD. Perhaps you could explain the PD status of the design in the information template, before reserving the copyright tag for the "final" copyright status of the files.

 * Under US law, you are correct, as sweat of the brow is not recognized for claims of copyright. Under UK law, however, I am allowed to assert a CC license over the scans (similar to how Adam has asserted a CC license on his more involved restorations). Owing to the effort it took to prepare these scans (tracking down the notes [the 1k in particular was hard to get in decent shape, as those are getting sparse], cleaning off the dust and gunk, avoiding Photoshop issues), I've decided that I want to ask that reusers credit me for the scans. A bit further detail can be found at Commons:Reuse of PD-Art photographs. This dual licensing has passed VIC on Commons on several occasions so far, and we've never had issues with Adam's dual licensed scans. (For the PD-ness of the banknotes, the template includes links to the pertinent law) I have already separated the copyright templates for the banknote and on the scan with headers ("Scan" and "Banknote", respectively). I could add "Owing to the effort involved in scanning, in countries recognizing sweat of the brow the author releases this image under a (license tag). Otherwise, the author requests attribution if these images are reused". if you prefer. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 09:35, 19 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Support. I think CC BY-SA as Godot13 doing is OK; but source and author should be well described. J e e  16:30, 20 September 2014 (UTC)
