广东省造光绪元宝

光绪元宝是清朝光绪年间流通的货币之一。由湖北两广总督张之洞率先引进英国铸币机器铸造银元和铜元,之后各省纷纷仿效。共有十九个省局铸造,除中央户部,地方省所铸铜元,皆在其正面上缘镌写省名。光绪元宝是大清光绪年流通大面值货币之首,是我国首批引进海外技术的印发流通货币,对于现今也蕴藏了一定历史意义。广东省造光绪元宝在中国近代机器铸币史上属一个大系列,其铸期历时甚长(从光绪22年—光绪34年[1896至1908年]),历经十余载,币模几经更替,即使同一铸造年份亦往往由于修模、币材、工艺技术、工厂管理等诸多因素,造成版别异常繁杂。

Guangxu Yuanbao was one of the currencies in circulation during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty. Zhang Zhidong, the governor of Hubei and Guangxi, took the lead in introducing British coin minting machines to cast silver and copper dollars, and the provinces followed suit. There are a total of 19 provincial bureaus and bureaus. Except for the central household department, the copper yuan cast by local provinces has the name of the province on the upper edge of the front. Guangxu Yuanbao was the first currency with large denominations in circulation during the Guangxu reign of the Qing Dynasty. It was the first batch of currency issued and issued in my country that introduced overseas technology. It also has a certain historical significance for today. The Guangxu ingot made in Guangdong Province belongs to a large series in the history of machine minting in modern China. The same casting year is also often due to many factors such as mold repair, currency materials, process technology, and factory management, resulting in extremely complicated versions.

广东省造光绪元宝库平七钱二分是清代广东省公开铸行的第三套机制银币。为我国晚清自铸机制银币的典范。光绪十三年正月(1887年2月)张之洞上奏朝廷请许广东试铸银元。同年3月光绪皇帝发布上谕命张之洞“听候谕旨遵行。”次年清政府迫于抵制外洋减少白银流失之需,批准了其请求。光绪十六年(1890年)广东省钱局造币厂根据清政府钦定体制,将钱文改錾蟠龙之外,以“广东省造”和库平重量汉文改到正面,广为鼓铸第三版“光绪元宝”,至光绪三十四年,朝廷将货币按三个等级铸造流通,分别是七钱二分(一元)、一钱四分四厘(二角)、七分二厘(一角),主要由天津的造币总厂铸造,北洋、南洋(江南)、湖北、广东是四个分厂,也有铸造,但流通量不大。

Guangxu Yuanbao Kuping Seven Coins made in Guangdong Province is the third set of machine-made silver coins made by the Guangdong Provincial Public Casting Company in the Qing Dynasty. It is a model of self-made machine-made silver coins in the late Qing Dynasty. In the first month of the thirteenth year of Guangxu (February 1887), Zhang Zhidong played the court asking Xu Guangdong to try silver dollars. In March of the same year, Emperor Guangxu issued an order to Zhang Zhidong to "listen to the order." The following year, the Qing government was forced to resist the need to reduce the loss of silver abroad and approved his request. In the 16th year of Guangxu (1890), according to the imperial system of the Qing government, the Mint of the Guangdong Provincial Money Bureau changed the text of the money to the front, and replaced it with "Made in Guangdong Province" and Kuping weight. In the third edition of "Guangxu Yuanbao", to the thirty-fourth year of Guangxu, the court circulated the currency according to three grades, namely seven cents and two cents (one yuan), one cent and four cents (two jiao), and seven cents and two cents ( One corner), which is mainly casted by the Tianjin Mint Plant. Beiyang, Nanyang (Jiangnan), Hubei, and Guangdong are four branch plants. There are also castings, but the circulation is not large.
