This Jordanian banknote or coin, which was created on or before December 31, 1968, is currently in the public domain in Jordan because Article 31 of Law No. 22 of 1992 on the Protection of Copyright provided that works authored by or to which the rights were held by a legal entity would have a copyright term of 30 years.
This term was later extended to 50 years by Law No. 14 of 1998 Amending Copyright Protection Law, however this extension did not apply to works that had previously entered the public domain, because Article 7 of the 1992 law explicitly disallows such retroactive protection of out-of-copyright works. In order to be hosted on Commons, all works must be in the public domain in the United States as well as in their source country. The copyright of all pre-1968 Jordanian banknotes had expired in Jordan on the U.S. date of restoration (July 28, 1999). Such banknotes are thus currently in the public domain in the United States.
