回顾历史，中国曾经有一段黑暗的时光，它被腐朽的封建皇朝统治着，直到后来，有一位伟大的领袖出现了，他带领着人民推翻了统治中国两千多年的封建皇朝，创建了中华民国，这个人就是孙中山，中国近代伟大的民主革命先行者。今天我们要介绍的主角就是采用孙中山肖像而具有重要纪念价值的中华民国开国纪念币。

Looking back on history, there was a dark time in China. It was ruled by the decadent feudal dynasty. Until later, a great leader appeared. He led the people to overthrow the feudal dynasty that ruled China for more than 2000 years and founded the Republic of China. This person was Sun Zhongshan, the great forerunner of democratic revolution in modern China. Today, we are going to introduce the commemorative coin of the founding of the Republic of China, which has important commemorative value by adopting the portrait of sun Yat-sen.

1912年，民国成立时，由于币制尚未建立，除四川改铸大汉银币，福建改铸中华元宝外，主要的造币厂，大都仍沿用前清钢模铸造银币，以供流通需要。由于币制混乱，临时政府财政部长陈锦涛，于民国元年3月11日呈文大总统孙中山，鼓铸1000万元纪念银币以为整顿。图案采用大总统孙中山肖像，以后的通用银币再改花纹式样。孙中山令财政部行文，同意鼓铸纪念币，并命令其余的通用银币新花纹，“中间应绘五谷模型，取丰岁足民之义，垂劝农务本之规”，训令财政部速制新模，分令各省造币厂照式鼓铸。不久，财政部就颁下新模给江南(南京)、湖北、广东等造币厂依式铸造，这就是“中华民国孙中山像开国纪念币”的由来。中华民国孙像开国纪念币银元，并非都是民国元年铸造。民国16年、17年南京和天津造币厂均有铸造，但采用的全是“中华民国开国纪念币”的年代。中华民国孙像开国纪念币银元，由于铸造厂家不一，铸造年代不同，雕刻师英语水平不高，除正背面主要图案未变外，其花饰细节、英文字母均有变异，特别是英文字母差错较多。这就形成了该币的多种版别。传世较广的主要有两种：一种是五角星版式，一种是六角星版式。其中，五角星版式又分为下五角星版和上五角星版，下五角星版是民国元年南京造币厂首先铸造，其特点是五角星方位在银币的左右偏下位置。后袁世凯窃取大总统，该币即停铸，流通短暂，流用不多，尤显珍贵;上五角星版是民国17年由天津造币厂铸造，五角星分列银币左右上方。此币是非常少见的，可谓凤毛麟角。

In 1912, when the Republic of China was founded, because the currency system had not yet been established, except for the silver coins of Dahan in Sichuan and Zhonghua Yuanbao in Fujian, most of the major mints still used the steel mould of the former Qing Dynasty to cast silver coins for circulation. Due to the confusion of the currency system, Chen Jintao, the finance minister of the interim government, submitted a letter to Sun Yat-sen, the president of the Republic of China, on March 11, the first year of the Republic of China, calling for 10 million yuan of commemorative silver coins for rectification. The design adopts the portrait of Sun Yat-sen, the great president, and later the general silver coin changes the pattern. Sun Yat-sen ordered the Ministry of finance to write, agreed to drum cast commemorative coins, and ordered the rest of the general silver coins to have new patterns, "in the middle, a model of five grains should be drawn, taking the meaning of the rich, the old and the people, and following the rules of urging the farmers to do business", ordered the Ministry of finance to quickly make new patterns, and ordered the mints of all provinces to drum cast according to the patterns. Soon after, the Ministry of Finance issued a new model to Jiangnan (Nanjing), Hubei, Guangdong and other mints, which was the origin of "the founding commemorative coins of Sun Yat Sen of the Republic of China". The silver dollar, the commemorative coin of the founding of Sun Xiang in the Republic of China, was not all minted in the first year of the Republic of China. In the 16th and 17th years of the Republic of China, the mints of Nanjing and Tianjin were all minted, but all of them adopted the "commemorative coins of the founding of the Republic of China". The silver dollar, the commemorative coin of the founding of Sun Xiang in the Republic of China, is not very good at English because of different foundries, different casting times, and the Engravers' English level. Except for the main patterns on the front and back, there are variations in the details of flower decorations and English letters, especially the errors in English letters. This resulted in a variety of types of the coin. There are two kinds of widely handed down: one is pentagram, the other is hexagon. Among them, the pentagram is divided into the lower Pentagram and the upper pentagram. The lower Pentagram was first minted by Nanjing Mint in the first year of the Republic of China, which is characterized by the position of the pentagram in the lower left and right of silver coins. After Yuan Shikai stole the great president, the coin was stopped and circulated for a short time, with little circulation, especially precious; the upper Pentagram plate was minted by Tianjin Mint in 17 years of the Republic of China, and the pentagram was arranged at the top left and right of the silver coin. This coin is very rare and rare.

这枚中华民国开国纪念币是六角星版式中的上六角星版。银币正面中心是孙中山侧面照，上方镌“中华民国”，下镌“开国纪念币”，左右各有长枝梅花图案。背面中间有币值“壹圆”字样，托以嘉禾纹，左右各一枝，每枝一穗三叶，上环英文“中华民国的诞生”，左右下方各有一个五角星。图案中还具有很深的寓意:隶书“民”的最后一划拉长，意为推翻满清，象征民主胜利(人民出头)，也宣示乃大众的政府。银币左右五瓣梅花各一支，五权宪法意者也。后即以此为国花。豆、麦穗取丰岁足民之义，垂劝农务本之规。三叶，三民主义意也。五角星则是区分铸币不同版别的重要依据。在市场行情一直都表现得都比较稳健，因此获得了很多收藏家的欢心。此枚银币整币品相好，色泽自然，文字、图案细腻清晰，深浅合适，孙中山头像栩栩如生，散发出一股王者的风范和历史沉淀的气息，又因其深厚的文化寓意，具有很高的收藏价值。

This commemorative coin of the founding of the Republic of China is the upper hexagon of the hexagram. In the center of the obverse side of the silver coin is the profile of Sun Zhongshan, with the inscription of "the Republic of China" on the top and the inscription of "the founding commemorative coin" on the bottom. In the middle of the reverse, there is the word "one yuan" with Jiahe pattern, one branch on the left and one branch on the right, one ear and three leaves on each branch. In the upper circle, the English word "the birth of the Republic of China" appears, and there is a five pointed star at the bottom and left. There is also a deep moral in the design: the last stretch of "people" in the official script means overthrowing the Manchu Dynasty, symbolizing the victory of Democracy (the beginning of the people), and declaring that it is the government of the masses. There is one plum blossom on the left and right of the silver coin, and the five power constitution Italy. After that, it will be the national flower. Beans and ears of wheat take the meaning of abundant years and sufficient people, and follow the rules of agricultural affairs. Three leaves, three people's principles. The pentagram is an important basis for distinguishing different types of coins. In the market has been relatively stable performance, so won the favor of many collectors. This silver coin is of good quality, natural color, fine and clear characters and patterns, suitable depth. Sun Yat-sen's head is lifelike, giving off a king's style and the breath of historical precipitation. It also has a high collection value due to its profound cultural implication.
