【藏品簡介】：光緒元寶是清朝光緒年間的貨幣之一。由湖北兩廣總督張之洞率先引進英國鑄幣機器鑄造銀元和銅元，之后各省紛紛仿效。共有十九個省局鑄造，除中央戶部，地方省所鑄銅元，皆在其正面上緣鐫寫省名。光緒元寶是大清光緒年大面值貨幣之首，是我國首批引進海外技術的印發貨幣，對于現今也蘊藏了一定歷史意義。其鑄期歷時甚長（從光緒22年—光緒34年[1896至1908年]），歷經十余載，幣模幾經更替，即使同一鑄造年份亦往往由于修模、幣材、工藝技術、工廠管理等諸多因素，造成版別異常繁雜。
[collection introduction]: Guangxu Yuanbao is one of the coins in the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty. Zhang Zhidong, governor of Hubei and Guangdong provinces, took the lead in introducing British coining machines to mint silver and copper dollars. Later, all provinces followed suit. A total of 19 provincial bureaus cast copper coins. Except for the central household department, the provincial names were engraved on the upper edge of the obverse. Guangxu Yuanbao is the first large denomination currency in the year of Guangxu in the Qing Dynasty. It is the first batch of printing and issuing currency to introduce overseas technology in China, which also contains a certain historical significance for today. Its casting period lasted for a long time (from the 22nd year of Guangxu to the 34th year of Guangxu [1896-1908]). After more than ten years, the coin mold has been replaced several times. Even in the same casting year, the edition is very complicated due to many factors such as mold repair, coin materials, technology, factory management and so on.
