Use in article (WP:NFCC#7) | Banknotes of the pound sterling#Current circulation |
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) | The image is used to identify the currency in question, and to assist recognition of it. |
Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1) |
Not permitted. "Banknote reproductions must either be an exact copy or bear no resemblance to our banknotes or contain any of the design elements."[1] |
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) | It only needs to be used on pages about current and historical UK bank notes. |
Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2) |
The image itself has zero commercial value; the value of a banknote is as a physical object. The only value of the image would be in using it to create a counterfeit note. To mitigate this it has been downscaled (~3x) and is clearly marked as specimen. It would be pointless to use this image to create a counterfeit anyways as the Bank of England freely provides far better specimen images. |
