Does anybody know or remember

Are 5-1/4" original diskettes for Lotus 1-2-3 v. 3.1 (DOS) copy protected
in such a way as to prevent the diskettes from being copied to produce usable
3.5" diskettes or a CD? I remember that the earliest versions of Lotus
1-2-3 required the diskette in the floppy drive as a "key" for the program
to start-up. I'm not sure what measures were taken for version 3.1.
