值得一提的是，“光緒元寶”是中國最早的機制幣，是中國近代機制幣中的十大名譽品之一，俗稱“龍洋”，因錢幣背面一般鑄有龍紋而得名。其具有重要的現實意義和歷史意義，且加上清末、民國戰亂連連等因素，一些較珍貴的光緒元寶錢幣品種存世量已稀少，收藏價值高。許多收藏家對它趨之若鶩，爭相起價。光緒元寶于1887年發行，1912年結束，只有短短的25年，但是它卻見證了華夏2000多年封建制度的終結。小小的錢幣，卻真實的反映了當時的社會、文化大環境。
It is worth mentioning that "Guangxu Yuanbao" is the earliest mechanism coin in China and one of the top ten reputation products in modern China. It is commonly known as "Longyang", which is named because the back of the coin is generally cast with dragon pattern. It has important practical and historical significance. Coupled with the continuous wars in the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, some precious Guangxu Yuanbao coins have been rare and have high collection value. Many collectors flocked to it and scrambled to start the price. Guangxu Yuanbao was issued in 1887 and ended in 1912. It was only 25 years, but it witnessed the end of the feudal system in China for more than 2000 years. The small coins truly reflected the social and cultural environment at that time.
