清朝末年，朝野上下发生了银元单位之争，币制未统一。北洋机器局更名北洋造币局，铸行较早脱离“两单位”的银币后，又于光绪二十五年始，铸行面值库平纪重的“光绪元宝”，在这类币的背面左側阿拉伯数字表示该币为光绪X年版，北洋造34年光绪元宝库平七钱二分发行量少，市场稀缺，为稀有币种。

At the end of the Qing Dynasty, there was a dispute over the silver unit between the government and the government, and the currency system was not unified. Beiyang Machinery Bureau changed its name to Beiyang minting Bureau. After casting silver coins that separated from the "two units" earlier, in the 25th year of Guangxu period, the coin with kupingjizhong face value was cast. The Arabic numerals on the left side of the reverse of this kind of coin indicated that the coin was Guangxu x-year version. In the 34th year of the reign of Beiyang, Guangxu Yuanbao was rare because of its small circulation and scarce market.
