珍品推荐-湖北省造光绪元宝

清代末期是一个银币、纸钞、铜币并行的年代，据悉，晚清光绪十三年(公元1887年)，两广总督张之洞，为维护清政府的统治，根据清政府的财政情况及对外贸易的需要，奏请清政府，主张自行铸制银元“龙洋”。获准后，于光绪十五年(公元1889年)，在广东设厂开始制造广东省光绪元宝，到光绪十六年(公元1890年)，广东省光绪元宝进入市面开始流通。随后，张之洞调任湖广总督，紧接着湖北省立马步广东省之后尘，于光绪二十一年(公元1895年)，开设造币厂制造湖北省光绪元宝。与此同时，天津的北洋机器局也开始制造银元。见此情况，清政府的一些御史官员先后奏请清政府准许各省仿效广东、湖北两省。在清政府“各省一律鼓铸”的圣旨下后，各省闻风而动，仿效广东、湖北两省，争先恐后的竞相设厂制造本省的光绪元宝。

The late Qing Dynasty was a time when silver, paper and copper coins coexisted. It is reported that in the 13th year of Guangxu in the late Qing Dynasty (1887 A.D.), Zhang Zhidong, governor of Guangzhou and Guangdong Provinces, in order to maintain the rule of the Qing Government, in accordance with the financial situation of the Qing Government and the need for foreign trade, invited the Qing Government to advocate the self-casting of silver yuan "Longyang". After being approved, Guangxu Yuanbao of Guangdong Province was manufactured in Guangxu 15th year (1889 A.D.). By Guangxu 16th year (1890 A.D.), Guangxu Yuanbao of Guangdong Province entered the market and began to circulate. Later, Zhang Zhidong was appointed Governor of Huguang, followed by Hubei Province, which immediately followed Guangdong Province. In the 21st year of Guangxu (AD 1895), he opened a mint to manufacture Guangxu Yuanbao in Hubei Province. At the same time, Tianjin's Beiyang Machinery Bureau began to make silver dollars. In view of this situation, some imperial officials of the Qing government successively asked the Qing government to allow provinces to follow the example of Guangdong and Hubei provinces. Under the Qing government's decree of "all provinces are cast by drums", all provinces followed the example of Guangdong and Hubei provinces, competing to set up factories to manufacture Guangxu Yuanbao.
