*/ We own the scans (the digital images, graphics, resulting from a scanning process) and the single physical banknotes (until they get sold). The person who purchases a banknote from us does not automatically get to own the digital scan (image) of the particular banknote displayed at our public gallery (or museum) that (s)he has purchased from Banknotes.com. That is, unless he/she makes their own scan of it. After a sale of a banknote we still keep the right to display the scanned image of that particular banknote in our public gallery or museum. We display our scans free of any cost to the public. We may sell our scanning labour to certain organisations, schools, universities, companies or other entities, such as publishing houses etc. (i.e.: sell a digitally scanned image of any banknote or another product that we currently possess of at an established by us cost of scanning labour). We reserve the right to refuse service to those individuals and entities that may use our scans or texts in any improper way or form. By providing our scanning labour at cost or by publically and freely displaying all the banknotes on our website we do not transfer any copy-rights to the new owner of the digital image (scan). New owner of the physical banknote or another product does not either own any copyright on the banknote. They own the physical banknote, but not necessarily the copyright on the design of the banknote. We do not either own the design nor the actual copyright of the banknote designs. Actual copyright of all the banknotes on Banknotes.com^TM belongs to their issuing banks, authorities and/or authors and/or designers of the banknotes and their designs. Copyright © notice placed on every banknote with © WWW.BANKNOTES.COM^TM is to protect the image from copying and printing in any improper way, such as by counterfeiters.

Notice: It is not advised to print or transfer onto a paper of any sort in any improper or illegal way any banknotes that are displayed in our gallery, store and Banknotes.com as a whole. It may be illegal to try to cash some of the banknotes you purchase from us, because some of the banknotes we sell (as clearly marked and noted in our store, website and pricelist) are either withdrawn from circulation, lapsed, non-negotiable, not legal tender, obsolete, no longer valid or are novelty notes. While others are current money, legal tender and thus are spendable currency. Please read all notices provided at Banknotes.com carefully before planning your purchase. Please also note that we do not sell counterfeit (fake) banknotes or other goods and products and therefore many modern (current) currency banknotes on our website are negotiable instruments, but are only sold by us as collectables.
