Cier is a posing phoney. As if he thinks he is entitled a copyright for the view from Ecola.
Andy submitted the photo he took as a candidate and they approved and accepted it.
Should there be a problem with that?
Very simple really.
So, is Ansel Adams a phoney because he was one of thousands who took the same pictures he did?
If you are interested in the facts, see andrewecier.com or the USmint.gov website--"Ocean In View nickel",and yes it was the copyrighted photograph of Andrew E. Cier, listed on his website that was "lifted" (internet theft), --check it out! View is Oregon Coast, but not from Ecola. With the help of an art copyright attorney, this was an unprecedented case settled in one month with the US Mint. And no, a scene is not copyrighted, it is the created artwork that is copyrighted. The cool thing is having a photograph of our Oregon coast on a national coin, and a local photographer has been given the credit, instead of the guy who took it from his website without permission!
