華夏民族有著5000多年的歷史文明，錢幣在此期間也得到了蓬勃的發展，在清朝時期，錢幣鑄造工藝已經發展到了一定的程度，但因著清朝政府的不作為，國內錢幣市場極其混亂，也正是在這期間，許許多多的外國貨幣在我國貨幣市場上流通，其中，鷹洋幣、坐洋幣、站洋幣、龍洋幣是當時市場上流通的外國貨幣主要四大種類，學名：法屬印度支那貿易銀圓，俗稱坐洋，為清末民初在華流通的外國銀圓之一。也恰是由于其成色高分量足，晚晴以致民國，在中國南部的云南，廣西、廣東、福建沿海以及國內大多數商賈聚集地通用。各種坐洋斷斷續續發行至1928年,因為戰爭的陰影而宣告結束。而中國在1933年實行廢兩改元后,船洋法幣逐漸一統市場,外國銀圓在中國不受重視,恰巧的是這個時候坐洋也銷聲匿跡了。
The Chinese nation has more than 5000 years of historical civilization, during which the coin has also been booming. In the Qing Dynasty, the coin casting technology has developed to a certain extent. However, due to the inaction of the Qing government, the domestic money market is extremely chaotic. During this period, a lot of foreign currency circulated in China's currency market, among which, Eagle currency and sitting foreign currency The standing currency and dragon ocean coins are the four major foreign currencies in the market at that time. The scientific name: French silver trade in Indochina, commonly known as "Yang Yang", is one of the foreign silver coins circulated in China at the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China. It was also because of its high quality and sufficient weight, it was widely used in Yunnan, Guangxi, Guangdong, Fujian coastal areas in the south of China, and most of the commercial gathering places in China during the late Qing Dynasty. All kinds of seafaring were issued intermittently until 1928, when it was over because of the shadow of the war. After the abolition of the two yuan system in 1933, the foreign currency was gradually unified into the market. Foreign silver dollars were not paid attention to in China. It happened that at this time, the foreign currency also disappeared.
銀元正面希臘自由女神坐像，因而得“坐洋”之名。為清末在華流通的外國銀圓之一，“坐洋”的主幣“壹圓”的鑄造時間從1885年開始，在巴黎鑄造，至1928年共計43年。“坐洋”的形象雖然與其后英國鑄造的“站洋”中持戟武士傲然挺立船頭的形象大相徑庭，但卻絲毫無法掩蓋殖民主義者大規模進行經濟侵略的野心。
On the obverse side of the silver dollar, the statue of Greek statue of Liberty was seated, hence the name of "sitting in the ocean". It was one of the foreign silver coins circulating in China in the late Qing Dynasty. The main currency of "sitting in the ocean" was minted in Paris in 1885 and lasted for 43 years from 1928. Although the image of "sitting in the ocean" is quite different from the image of the halberd warrior standing erect in the bow of the ship cast by Britain later, it can not hide the ambition of colonialists to carry out large-scale economic aggression.
根據1952年在人民銀行內部出版的《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”。但為了敘述方便下文仍采用“坐洋”的說法銀元正面自由女神坐像，這也是“坐洋”得名的原因。于1879年開始鑄造10仙、20仙、50仙的銀幣。當時法屬安南政府為抵制墨西哥銀幣及美國貿易銀幣，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（27.215克，90%成色）上都優于鷹洋，很快就占領了統治地位。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。因此，于1895年將成色減低，將一元坐洋的重量由原來的27.215克減至27克。
According to the illustration of silver dollar, which was published in the people's Bank of China in 1952, its official name should be Annam silver dollar, also known as "sitting man" and "Fa Guang". Because the flower wreath on the head of the statue of liberty on the front of this silver coin has seven beams of light, commonly known as "seven corners". However, for the convenience of narration, the following is still used to say "sitting in the ocean", which is also the reason why "sitting in the ocean" got its name. In 1879, silver coins of 10, 20 and 50 cents were minted. At that time, in order to resist the Mexican silver coins and the American trade silver coins, the French Annan government began to coin one dollar silver coins in 1885. Because of the beginning of casting, it was superior to the eagle in terms of color and weight (27.215 g, 90% of the finished color), and soon occupied the dominant position. It is also because its pure weight is higher than that of the Mexican Eagle ocean, there are many hiding and melting, so it can not be circulated. Therefore, in 1895, the quality of the product was reduced, and the weight of one yuan was reduced from 27.215 g to 27 G.
