四川銅幣，是晚清和北洋時期四川省地方政權鑄造的貨幣。由于川省銀銅礦缺乏，加之辛亥革命以后軍閥割據，致使中央政府《幣制條例》關于銅幣之原料比例、銅幣面額的規定沒有嚴格遵守，四川銅幣發行量十分巨大，致使物價虛高、影響經濟發展。四川銅幣，自光緒二十九年(1903年)六月開鑄，至民國二十四年(1935年)十一月法幣開始流通才逐漸退出流通領域 。
清光緒二十六年(1900年)，兩廣總督李鴻章奏準在廣東開鑄圓形無孔銅幣(銅元)。次年，清政府諭令沿江沿海各省準許仿造 。光緒二十七年，四川省在成都設四川銅元局，于二十九年六月開工鑄造當五 、當十文面額 銅幣，七月增鑄當二十文銅幣。
光緒三十四年，戶部通令各省暫停鑄造銅幣，四川總督趙爾豐請免停，獲準續鑄。宣統元年，度支部下令撤并各省銀銅廠局，趙爾豐再次請求續鑄獲準。四川遂成為宣統年間少數可續鑄大清銅幣的省份。
辛亥革命以后，四川大漢軍政府于1912年4月廢止大清銅幣模板，改鑄"漢"字銅元，有當10文、20文、50文三種面額。1913年，增鑄當100文、200文的銅幣。1913年5月，重慶銅元局建成開工，均仿成都廠模式。
進入北洋時代以后，軍閥割據、時局動蕩，銅價高昂，于是四川鑄幣廠采取降等減重、加大面值的方法謀取私利。民間除老一百文、老兩百文銅幣色澤稍紫外，其余呈黃白色，質地劣于大清銅幣。1914年起，專鑄當100文、當200文銅元。各軍閥紛紛效尤，鑄造的銅幣達數億枚，四川幣制混亂不堪。
1935年，國民政府在四川推行法幣，四川銅幣遂逐漸退出流通市場。

Sichuan copper coin was the currency cast by the local government of Sichuan Province in the late Qing Dynasty and the Beiyang Period. Due to the shortage of silver and copper mines in Sichuan Province, and the warlords' separation after the Revolution of 1911, the central government's "Currency System Regulations" on the ratio of raw materials and denomination of copper coins did not strictly abide by the provisions, so the copper coins issued in Sichuan were very large, resulting in artificially high prices and affecting economic development. Sichuan copper coins were cast in June, the 29th year of Guangxu (1903), and gradually withdrew from the circulation field in November, the 24th year of the Republic of China (1935), when legal tender began to circulate.
In 1900, Li Hongzhang, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, cast round copper coins in Guangdong without holes. The following year, the Qing government ordered the provinces along the river and the coast to allow counterfeiting. Guangxu twenty-seven years, Sichuan Province in Chengdu set up Sichuan Copper Bureau, in June twenty-nine when five, when ten denomination copper coins, July when 20 copper coins added casting.
Guangxu thirty-four years, the Ministry of Housing ordered the provinces to suspend the casting of copper coins, Sichuan Governor Zhao Erfeng please do not stop, allowed to continue casting. In the first year of Xuantong, the branch ordered the removal of the silver and copper factory bureau of the provinces, Zhao Erfeng again asked for permission to continue casting. Sichuan then became a few Xuantong years can continue to cast Daqing copper coins in the provinces.
After the Revolution of 1911, the military government of Sichuan and Han Dynasty abolished the Qing Dynasty copper coin template in April 1912, and instead cast "Han" copper coins, which have three denominations of 10, 20 and 50. In 1913, copper coins of 100 and 200 coins were added. In May 1913, Chongqing Tongyuan Bureau was built and started, all imitating the model of Chengdu Factory.
After entering the Beiyang era, warlords were divided, the situation was turbulent, and the copper price was high. Therefore, the Sichuan Mint took the methods of reducing the weight and increasing the face value to seek personal gains. Folk copper coins except the old one hundred and two hundred copper coins are slightly ultraviolet in color, and the rest are yellow and white, and the quality is inferior to the Qing copper coins. Since 1914, specially cast when 100, when 200 copper yuan. Warlords have followed suit, casting hundreds of millions of copper coins, Sichuan currency system chaos.
In 1935, the Nationalist Government carried out legal tender in Sichuan, and Sichuan copper coins gradually withdrew from the circulation market.
