在清朝末年，有大量的外國銀元在我國橫行，其中有一種來自法國的銀元，該銀元的圖案是一個端坐的人像，所以人們把它稱之為坐洋。現(xiàn)在，坐洋也成為了錢幣收藏市場上眾多清末民國時期銀元的一種，不過由于坐洋的含銀量低，因此它的市場價格比較便宜。坐洋銀元雖然是在我國流通的外國銀元之一，但是坐洋銀元的流通區(qū)域僅限于我國的廣西合云南地區(qū)，當時他的主要流通地區(qū)還是東南亞地區(qū)。
At the end of the Qing Dynasty, there were a large number of foreign silver dollars in China, among which there was a silver dollar from France. The pattern of the silver dollar was a sitting portrait, so people called it sitting on the ocean. Nowadays, Zuoyang has also become one of the silver coins in the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China in the coin collection market. However, because Zuoyang has low silver content, its market price is relatively cheap. Although the foreign silver dollar is one of the foreign silver dollars circulating in China, its circulation area is limited to Guangxi and Yunnan in China, and its main circulation area at that time was Southeast Asia.
根據(jù)1952年在人民銀行內(nèi)部出版的《銀元圖說》，其正式名稱應為安南銀元，亦稱“坐人”、“法光”、因為這種銀幣正面所鑄的自由女神坐像頭上的花圈有光芒七束，俗稱“七角”。但為了下面敘述方便，本文仍采用“坐洋”的說法。銀元正面自由女神像。于1879年開始鑄造10仙、20仙、50仙的銀幣。當時安南政府為抵制墨西哥銀幣及美國貿(mào)易銀幣，于1885年開始鑄造一元銀幣。由于坐人開始鑄造無論從成色及重量上都優(yōu)于鷹洋，很快就占領了統(tǒng)治地位。也正因為其純重高于墨西哥鷹洋，多有藏匿及熔化者，故不能流通。
According to the Illustration of Silver Dollar published in the People's Bank of China in 1952, its official name should be Annan Silver Dollar, also known as "Sitting Man" and "Faguang", because the wreath on the head of the Statue of Liberty cast on the front of this silver coin has seven beams of light, commonly known as "Seven Corners". However, for the convenience of the following description, this paper still adopts the saying of "sitting in the ocean". Statue of Liberty in front of silver dollar. In 1879, the silver coins of 10 cents, 20 cents and 50 cents were minted. At that time, Annan government began to cast one-dollar silver coins in 1885 to resist Mexican silver coins and American silver coins. Because people started casting, they were superior to Yingyang in color and weight, and soon occupied the dominant position. It is precisely because its pure weight is higher than that of Eagle Ocean in Mexico, and there are many hidden and melted people, so it cannot be circulated.
各種坐洋斷斷續(xù)續(xù)發(fā)行至1937年，因為戰(zhàn)爭的陰影而宣告結束。而中國在1933年實行廢兩改元后，船洋法幣逐漸一統(tǒng)市場，外國銀圓在中國的好日子不復再了，恰好的是這個時候坐洋也銷聲匿跡了。二次大戰(zhàn)城結束后，法國短暫統(tǒng)治印度支那，再沒有再發(fā)行過銀質(zhì)貨幣。綜觀坐洋歷年的發(fā)行量以1903年至1923年間最為瘋狂，年鑄幾百萬至上千萬枚。
Various kinds of foreign affairs were released intermittently until 1937, and ended because of the shadow of war. In 1933, after China implemented the abolition of the two currencies to change the yuan, the foreign currency gradually dominated the market, and the good days of foreign silver coins in China were gone. It happened that the foreign currency also disappeared at this time. After the end of World War II, France briefly ruled zhina, India, and never issued silver currency again. From 1903 to 1923, the circulation in the past years was the craziest, casting millions to tens of millions of pieces every year.
銀幣正面的主圖為手執(zhí)束棒的自由女神坐像，坐像的兩側鑄法文文字是：REPUBLIQUE FRANCAISE（法蘭西共和國）。女神座下方有小字法文BARRE和該幣發(fā)行的年份。
The main picture on the front of the silver coin is a sitting statue of the Statue of Liberty with a bundle of sticks in hand. French characters are cast on both sides of the sitting statue: REPUBLIQUE FRANCAISE (French Republic). There are fine print French BARRE and the year when the coin was issued under Goddess.
銀幣背面的主圖案為一花環(huán)，周圈為說明文字，花環(huán)上方鑄法文為：FRANCAISE INDO-CHINE（法蘭西印度支那），銀幣花環(huán)中間的橫向文字為銀幣的面額：PIASTRE DE COMMERCE(皮阿斯特的貿(mào)易銀)。銀幣花環(huán)下方文字為：TITRE 0.900 POIDS 27 GR。整塊銀幣背面文字的中文意譯為：法蘭西（所屬的）印度支那（銀幣）。坐洋幣”銀元作為一種歷史載體，記錄了鴉片戰(zhàn)爭以后，中國人民政治上受壓迫，經(jīng)濟上受剝削的屈辱歷史。研究在中國流通的外國貨幣，對于我們了解外國列強利用銀元貿(mào)易，掠奪中國財富的罪行，增強愛國主義精神，為中華民族的偉大復興貢獻力量，具有十分重要的意義，同時作為古錢幣之一的“坐洋幣”，隨著市場發(fā)展，從最初的無人問津到輝煌的巔峰時期，現(xiàn)今深受海外收藏家的喜愛，收藏價值也不斷刷新飆升。
The main pattern on the back of the silver coin is a garland, with explanatory words around it. The French word cast above the garland is FRANCAISE INDO-CHINE, and the horizontal word in the middle of the silver coin garland is the denomination of the silver coin: PIASTRE DE COMMERCE. The words below the garland of silver coins are: TITRE 0.900 POIDS 27 GR The Chinese free translation of the words on the back of the whole silver coin is: France (to which it belongs), India, zhina (silver coin). As a historical carrier, silver dollar recorded the humiliating history of Chinese people's political oppression and economic exploitation after the Opium War. It is of great significance to study the foreign currency circulating in China for us to understand the crimes of foreign powers using silver and dollar trade to plunder Chinese wealth, enhance patriotism and contribute to the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. At the same time, as one of the ancient coins, "sitting foreign currency", with the development of the market, has been deeply loved by overseas collectors from the initial unattended to the brilliant peak period, and its collection value has been continuously refreshed and soared.
