【藏品簡介】：光緒元寶是清朝光緒年間流通的貨幣之一。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流通大面值貨幣之首，是我國首批引進海外技術的印發流通貨幣，對于現今也蘊藏了一定歷史意義。廣東省造光緒元寶在中國近代機器鑄幣史上屬一個大系列，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。
[introduction to collection]: Guangxu Yuanbao was one of the currency in circulation during the reign of Guangxu in the Qing Dynasty. Zhang Zhidong, governor of Hubei Province, first introduced the British coining machine to produce silver and copper coins, and then the provinces followed suit. There are 19 provincial bureaus casting, except for the central household department, local provinces casting copper yuan, all in its front edge engraved with the name of the province. Guangxu Yuanbao was the first currency with large denomination in the reign of Guangxu in the Qing Dynasty. It was the first circulation currency to introduce overseas technology. It also has a certain historical significance for today. Guangxu Yuanbao made in Guangdong province belongs to a large series in the history of modern Chinese machine coinage. 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 coinage has been replaced several times. Even in the same year, many factors, such as mold repair, coin material, technology, factory management, and so on, often lead to extremely complicated editions.

事實上，迄今鑄造的銀、銅幣的文字也沒有哪一種可以與戶部一兩的文字相比。最重要的兩點：一是該幣幾乎每一筆筆畫中以及紋飾中均添加了迄今難以模仿的圓點暗記，令人嘆為觀止。二是背面盤龍龍眼內有兩顆清晰的內視龍睛，直指龍珠，簡直就是最優秀的盤龍浮雕作品。至今為止的諸多的臆造幣、仿造幣文字和鑄造上無一可望其項背！光緒元寶中，珍稀度最高的就是廣東省造的雙龍壽字幣：庫平重一兩，值得收藏。
In fact, there is no silver or copper coin written so far that it can be compared with one or two of the household. The most important two points are: one is that almost every stroke and decoration of the coin has been added with the hard to imitate dot secret notes so far, which is amazing. Second, there are two clear inner eyes in the dragon eye of Panlong on the back, pointing directly to the Dragon beads, which is the best relief work of Panlong. So far, there is no hope of its item in many fictitious coinage, imitative coinage and casting! Among the yuan treasures of Guangxu, the most precious is the double dragon longevity coin made in Guangdong Province: the weight of Kuping is oneortwo, which is worth collecting.
“光緒元寶”當時共十九個省局鑄造。除中央戶部，地方省所鑄銅元，皆在其正面上緣鐫寫省名。計有：1戶部；2北洋；3吉林；4奉天；5清江；6浙江；7江南；8廣東；9山東；10福建；11湖南；12湖北；13四川；14江西；15河南；16安徽；17廣西；18新疆；19黑龍江。 該幣是中國所有龍洋圖案銀元（包括國外發行的所有銀幣）中，工藝最精湛，雕工最完美，浮雕感最強烈的品種，鏡面平整光滑，紋飾的相慣線（相慣線——現代機械制圖學術語，即平面與平面、平面與曲面及曲面與曲面之間的交線。）顯得非常清晰，特別是戶部一兩系列銀幣鑄造精美，字口、紋路和邊齒深峻，完全是國外鑄造的樣幣風格。一兩銀幣，楷書文字書法極為精湛、大氣，間架結構平衡舒展，在龍洋里首屈一指。作為準備流通的貨幣（盡管沒有流通），其暗記防偽更是前無古人后無來者，無可匹敵，錢幣表面的包漿醇厚，即便是對銀元沒有研究的外行也是愛不釋手，極具觀賞性。
"Guangxu Yuanbao" was cast by 19 provincial bureaus at that time. In addition to the central household department, the copper coins of local provinces are engraved with the name of the province on the front edge. There are: 1 household department; 2. Beiyang; 3 Jilin; 4. Fengtian; 5 Qingjiang; 6 Zhejiang; 7 Jiangnan; 8 Guangdong; 9 Shandong Province; 10 Fujian; 11 Hunan; 12 Hubei; 13 Sichuan; 14 Jiangxi; 15 Henan Province; 16 Anhui; 17 Guangxi; 18 Xinjiang; 19 Heilongjiang. Among all the silver coins with Longyang patterns in China (including all the silver coins issued abroad), this coin has the most exquisite craftsmanship, the most perfect carving and the strongest sense of relief. The mirror surface is smooth and smooth, and the lines of inertia (lines of inertia are the intersection lines of plane and plane, plane and curved surface, and curved surface and curved surface) In particular, one or two series of silver coins in Hubu are exquisitely minted, with deep mouth, lines and side teeth, which are completely the style of sample coins minted abroad. With one or two silver coins and regular script, the calligraphy is extremely exquisite and grand, and the structure between the shelves is balanced and stretched, ranking second to none in Longyang. As a currency ready for circulation (although it is not in circulation), its secret anti-counterfeiting is unprecedented and unmatched. The surface of the coin is covered with thick paste, which is very ornamental even for laymen who do not study silver.
