Copyright Theft
Perhaps we should be flattered by the number of people including dealers who continually infringe our IP (Intellectual Property) rights by using our copyright images, but we do not find it amusing, and will take legal action against any copyright thieves.
Colnect.com
Colnect.com is just one of the many coin dealers, bloggers & websites worldwide who commit copyright theft by using our copyright images without our permission. On their website, a page of which we reproduce here, they are clearly using our 1999 Rugby World Cup Gold Proof Two Pound Coin, 2003 DNA Gold Proof Two Pound Coin, 2004 Steam Engine Gold Proof Two Pound Coin, 2005 Gunpowder Plot Gold Proof Two Pound Coin, 2005 60th Anniversary End World War II St. Paul’s Cathedral Gold Proof Two Pound Preview ChangesCoin, 2006 Brunel the Man Gold Proof Two Pound Coin, 2006 Brunel – Paddington Station Gold Proof Two Pound Coin and our 2012 Charles Dickens Gold Proof Two Pound Coin photographs.
What’s Wrong?
It is dishonest and unethical to pirate and steal other people’s work by using high quality copyright photographs without the owner’s consent. We can partially understand why they do it; it is quick and easy (but then so is robbing people).
