四川省于光緒二十九年（1903）六月在省城（成都）機(jī)器局附設(shè)成都銀元局內(nèi)開鑄銅元。次年，又興建銅幣廠，專鑄銅元。四川省鑄造的銅元，按幣面上緣所鑄的紀(jì)地文字，可分“四川官局造”和“四川省造”兩大體系。四川當(dāng)三十銅元屬于后者。
In June 1903, the 29th year of Guangxu's reign, Sichuan province started casting copper yuan in the Chengdu silver yuan bureau attached to the machinery bureau of the provincial capital (Chengdu). The following year, a copper coin factory was built to cast copper coins. The copper coins cast in Sichuan province can be divided into two systems: "made by Sichuan government bureau" and "made in Sichuan province" according to the geographical characters cast on the upper edge of the coin surface. Sichuan when 30 copper yuan belongs to the latter.
四川當(dāng)三十銅元，是未被獲準(zhǔn)發(fā)行的試鑄幣。未被獲準(zhǔn)鑄發(fā)的原因，很可能是由于當(dāng)三十的幣值不符合戶部關(guān)于銅元鑄造的規(guī)定。中國(guó)的銅元，在初創(chuàng)階段，各省是各自為政的，成色、圖案參差繁雜，幣制十分紊亂。清政府曾不斷對(duì)幣制進(jìn)行整頓，力圖劃一。雖然收效不大，但還是顯現(xiàn)了漸趨統(tǒng)一的趨勢(shì)。四川當(dāng)三十銅元鑄于光緒三十年間，已處于“光緒元寶”銅元的后期階段。根據(jù)戶部的要求，當(dāng)時(shí)各省鑄造銅元，須援引廣東成法，成色、圖案及面值以廣東省銅元為標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。廣東省銅元的幣值分別為二十文、十文、五文三等。顯然，四川當(dāng)三十銅元的鑄造是不符合這一標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的。此外，在清代的銅元鑄造中，面值當(dāng)三十者，唯有四川一家?？磥?lái)，在銅元面值問(wèn)題上，其它省份的造幣廠都是循規(guī)蹈矩的。
Sichuan when 30 copper yuan, is not allowed to issue test coins. The reason why it was not allowed to be cast is probably because when the value of 30 yuan does not conform to the regulations of the Ministry of Household on copper casting. In the initial stage of China's copper yuan, each province was divided into its own provinces, with various colors and patterns, and a very disordered monetary system. The Qing government has been continuously reorganizing the monetary system in an attempt to unify it. Although the results are not very good, there is still a trend towards unification. Sichuan Dang30 Copper Yuan was cast in the 30th year of Guangxu, and is in the late stage of "Guangxu Yuanbao" copper Yuan. According to the requirements of the household department, when all provinces cast copper coins, they had to invoke the Guangdong method of formation, and the fineness, design and face value were based on the Guangdong copper coins. The value of the copper dollar in Guangdong province is 20, 10 and 5 respectively. Obviously, the casting of 30 copper yuan in Sichuan does not meet this standard. In addition, Sichuan was the only one with a face value of 30 in the copper coin casting in the Qing Dynasty. It seems that the coin factories in other provinces are following the rules regarding the face value of copper coins.
此枚四川光緒當(dāng)三十銅元，正面中央為一花星，其外環(huán)繞“光緒元寶”四字以及珠圈，上面上緣鑄“四川省造”，下緣鑄“當(dāng)三十”，左右兩側(cè)鑄滿文“寶源”背面中間鑄龍圖（按照龍紋不同，克分別為“水龍”版和“飛龍版”），外環(huán)珠圈一道，上緣鑄英文“四川”，下緣標(biāo)有阿拉伯?dāng)?shù)字“30”及“文”的英文字母“CASH”左右兩側(cè)各有一花星。水龍又分有眼皮和無(wú)眼皮二個(gè)版，正面還有大馬齒、細(xì)馬齒以及高低滿文之分。
This gold coin was made in Guangxu, Sichuan, with a flower star in the center of its front face, surrounded by four characters of "Guangxu Yuanbao" and bead rings. The upper edge of the coin was cast with "Made in Sichuan Province", the lower edge was cast with "Dang 30", the left and right sides were cast with a dragon figure in the middle of the back of the Manchu word "Baoyuan" (according to the dragon pattern, grams were respectively "Shuilong" and "Feilong"), the outer ring of beads was cast with English "Sichuan" on its upper edge, and the English letters "CASH" marked with Arabic numerals "30" and "Wen" on its lower edge were cast with a flower star on the left and right sides. The waterspout is divided into two editions, with and without eyelids, with large teeth on the front, fine teeth on the horse, and high and low Manchu script.
這種四川省造“光緒元寶”當(dāng)三十因不符合幣制而被“禁令行用”理所當(dāng)然，四川銅元局也無(wú)理申辯。正因?yàn)槭墙沽魍ǖ脑囪T樣幣，數(shù)量自然有限，流傳至今當(dāng)然十分罕見。四川省造“光緒元寶”當(dāng)三十被中外泉家和各種書刊評(píng)級(jí)為大珍當(dāng)之無(wú)愧。
This kind of "Guangxu Yuanbao" made in Sichuan Province was taken for granted when it was "forbidden to use" because it did not conform to the monetary system. The Sichuan Copper and Yuan Bureau also made unreasonable arguments. It is precisely because it is a trial-cast sample coin that is prohibited from circulation that the number of coins is naturally limited. It is of course very rare to have such coins circulated so far. "Guangxu Yuanbao" made in Sichuan Province deserves to be rated as a great treasure by Chinese and foreign scholars and various books and periodicals.
