Although coins are small, they can read out the social, cultural and economic conditions at that time, so as to get a glimpse of the leopard. Guangxu Yuanbao is a big category of coin collection, which has always attracted the attention of coin lovers. Nowadays, it shines brilliantly in the antique market, and the transaction price has risen repeatedly, which has become the focus of many collectors.

光绪元宝作为清代末期主要的流通货币发行了很多个版本，有一些发行时间短、发行量少的省份类银元尤为珍贵，其中“浙江省造”光绪元宝就是一种。浙江省当时作为清政府主要税收来源的省份之一，又是沿海开埠的主要地区对外贸易经济发达需要大量的贸易银元，但是浙江省自身没有先进的机制币铸造能力，无奈之下只得委托别处代为铸造，又因为清政府收回各地铸币权归中央统一铸造，所以“浙江省造”光绪元宝存世量相当稀少，备受钱币收藏家关注。浙江地处沿海，通行洋银甚早，清季虽已设厂造币惟大量产制银元是民国以后的事。由于筹建较迟，光绪二十五年浙局开铸后即奉旨停工，机器拆迁他处；营运期间所出银币数额不多，由于当时钱荒严重，生产铜元更有利可图，银币有充沛鹰洋可用而被冷落甚至搁置。

Guangxu Yuanbao, as the main currency in circulation at the end of Qing Dynasty, has been issued in many editions. Some provincial silver dollars with short issuing time and small circulation are especially precious, among which Guangxu Yuanbao made in Zhejiang Province is one kind. At that time, Zhejiang Province, as one of the main tax sources of the Qing government, was also a major coastal port opening area. The developed foreign trade and economy required a large amount of trade silver dollars. However, Zhejiang Province itself did not have the advanced mechanism coin casting ability, so it had to entrust other places to cast it on its behalf. Moreover, because the Qing government took back the coinage rights from all over the country and returned it to the central government for unified casting, the Guangxu ingots made in Zhejiang Province were scarce and attracted the attention of coin collectors. Zhejiang is located along the coast, and foreign silver was widely used very early. Although factories were set up to make coins in the Qing Dynasty, it was after the Republic of China that a large number of silver dollars were produced. Due to the late preparation, after the opening of the Zhejiang Bureau in the 25 th year of Guangxu, it was ordered to stop work and the machine was demolished elsewhere; During the operation period, the amount of silver coins produced was small. Because of the serious shortage of money at that time, it was more profitable to produce copper coins, and silver coins were left out or even put on hold because there were abundant eagles available.

光绪元宝开创了机制币的时代，在当时的清朝光绪年间由湖北两广总督张之洞率先引进英国铸币机器铸造；整个历史当中第一种出现英文的钱币。开创了圆的时代。在中国古代实行本位制，都是以几两为主，钱币讲究的是内圆外方，在此之前都是方孔铜钱，而从光绪元宝开始，开创了圆钱的划时代意义。历史意义特殊，铸时最短。凭借着精湛的铸币技艺，清晰和谐的图案纹理，不仅大气美观，浮雕感强烈，而且独具特色，是钱币中罕见的铸币版本。而此枚光绪元宝因地域（浙江省）政权发行货币的时间相当短，加上流通地域狭小，目前存世量非常稀少，市场稀缺，稀有珍贵。所铸货币价值不菲。

The money cast is worth a lot of money.
