袁大頭是民國時期主要流通貨幣之一,“袁大頭”是對袁世凱像系列硬幣的口語俗稱,嚴謹點說叫“袁世凱像背嘉禾銀幣”。北洋政府為了整頓幣制,劃一銀幣,于民國三年(1914年)二月,頒布《國幣條例》十三條,決定實行銀本位制度。《國幣條例》規定:“以庫平純銀六錢四分八厘為價格之單位,定名為圓”,“一圓銀幣,總重七錢二分,銀八九,銅一一”,“一圓銀幣用數無限制”,即以一圓銀幣為無限法償的本位貸幣。根據這一規定,于1914年12月及1915年2月, 先后由造幣總廠及江南造幣廠開鑄一圓銀幣,幣面鐫刻袁世凱頭像,俗稱“袁頭幣”或“袁大頭”。“袁大頭”在貨幣收藏界被稱為銀元之寶,它是中國近千種近代銀幣中流傳最廣、影響最大的銀元品種,也是近代中國幣制變革中的一個重要角色。
Yuan Datou was one of the main currency in circulation during the Republic of China. "Yuan Datou" is the colloquial term for the series of Yuan Shikai's portrait coins. Strictly speaking, it is called "Yuan Shikai's portrait back of the Golden Harvest Silver Coin". In order to rectify the currency system and standardize the silver coin, the Beiyang government promulgated 13 Articles of the National Currency Regulations in February of the Republic of China (1914) and decided to implement the silver standard system. The "National Currency Regulations" stipulate: "The price is based on Kuping's six quarters of pure silver, and the unit is named Yuan", "One round of silver coin, total weight of seven coins and two cents, silver eighty-nine, copper one one", " There is no limit to the number of one-yen silver coins", that is, one-yen silver coin is the standard credit currency with unlimited repayment. According to this regulation, in December 1914 and February 1915, one round of silver coins were minted by the Mint and Jiangnan Mint. The head of Yuan Shikai was engraved on the coin, commonly known as "Yuan Tou Coin" or "Yuan Head". . "Yuan Datou" is known as the treasure of silver dollars in the currency collection circle. It is the most widely circulated and influential silver dollar variety among nearly 1,000 modern silver coins in China. It is also an important role in the reform of modern Chinese currency system.
