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(shù)的印發(fā)流通貨幣，對于現(xiàn)今也蘊藏了一定歷史意義。

Fengtian Mint is the oldest Mint in China, mainly producing and circulating coins, gold and silver commemorative coins. According to records, in the 22nd year of Guangxu period, at the request of general yiketang'a of Shengjing, the Fengtian Machinery Bureau was established and prepared to forge machine-made silver coins. Boilers and coin machines powered by steam engines were imported from Germany. In 1897, Fengtian Machinery Bureau was officially built. The predecessor of the General Administration of manufacturing silver yuan in Fengtian was Fengtian Machinery Bureau. From the 24th to 26th year of Guangxu (1898-1900), silver coins and machine-made copper coins were successively issued. In 1900, the Yihetuan Movement broke out, and the Fengtian Machinery Bureau was destroyed by the war. Later, in order to meet the needs of the market, Fengtian province rebuilt the mint at the original site of the machinery bureau, named "Fengtian silver and Yuan general bureau", which specialized in silver coins and copper coins. In July of the 29th year of the reign of Emperor Guangxu (1903), the factory was completed and silver coins were issued.
