民國二年，也就是1913年，時任四川軍政府都督的胡景伊，在繼續鑄造“漢”字幣的同時，增鑄重七錢的二百文大面額銅元。這也是民國時期四川銅元中唯一使用英文的一種貨幣。由于后來國民政府發行統一幣模，各地方錢幣即停止鑄造發行，因而鑄造量少，流通時間短，頗為珍貴。
In the second year of the Republic of China, that is, in 1913, Hu Jingyi, then the commander-in-chief of the Sichuan military government, continued to cast the "Han" type coins, and at the same time, he added 200 Wen large denomination copper coins with a weight of seven coins. During the period of the Republic of China, the only currency used in Sichuan was copper yuan. Since the national government issued a unified coin mold, local coins stopped casting and issuing, so the quantity of coins was small, the circulation time was short, and it was very precious.
民國成立后，銅元仍繼續大量流通使用。1914年，銅元正式改稱“銅幣”，民國發行的銅幣與清最大的區別是龍紋被換成了由稻穗組成的嘉禾紋。各省鑄造的銅元大多為兩面叉的國旗圖案。
After the founding of the Republic of China, copper coins continued to be widely used. In 1914, Tongyuan was officially renamed "copper coin". The biggest difference between the copper coins issued in the Republic of China and the Qing Dynasty was that the dragon pattern was replaced by Jiahe pattern composed of rice ears. Most of the copper coins cast in each province are the flag patterns with two forks.
民國時期的銅幣是近代中國錢幣中的精品，有著歷史熏陶，是價值很高的革命文物，具有深遠的歷史紀念意義，因為我國近代時期的政治以及金融的滄桑變化都體現在一枚小小的錢幣上，是考古和研究中國歷史文化難得的實物，也是一種收藏鑒賞價值與使用價值并存的高級收藏品，隨著它退出流通市場，在收藏界中更會越來越受藏友的喜愛。
The copper coins of the Republic of China are the best coins in modern China. They are highly valued revolutionary relics and have far-reaching historical significance. Because the political and financial changes in modern China are reflected in a small coin, they are rare objects for Archaeology and Research on Chinese history and culture, and also a combination of collection, appreciation and use value With its withdrawal from the circulation market, the high-grade collectibles will be more and more popular among collectors.
1917年(民國6年)，劉(存厚)、羅(佩金)、戴(欹)之戰后。在四川境內逐步形成了大小軍閥劃區駐防，就地籌餉的“防區制”。各地軍閥為籌措軍餉及牟取暴利，紛紛自設造幣機構，開機鑄造四川銅幣和雙旗二百文銅元。據1933年中國銀行重慶分行編《四川金融風潮史略》記載：“自民五軍興以后。五年來內戰頻仍，軍民財政四分五裂，大而師旅團部，小而縣署鄉場，無不自購手搖機。收買制錢．任意濫鑄，以供支使。”各地軍閥私自鑄造的銅元多為大面額一百文四川銅幣及雙旗二百文銅幣。因此現今存世之“漢”字一百文及雙旗二百文銅元版式較多。盡管嚴格地說只有成都造幣廠及重慶銅元局所鑄銅元，才能被視為四川民國時期銅元的正版，但是由于民國時期四川地區軍閥割據的歷史背景所決定，各地軍閥所鑄銅元亦完全與成渝兩廠所鑄正版銅元等值進入流通領域。因此，對于這一類軍閥私自設廠鑄造的銅元，很難與民間私鑄銅元等同看待，只能視為正式流通貨幣。
In 1917 (the 6th year of the Republic of China), Liu (Cunhou), Luo (Peijin) and Dai (Shen) were killed after the war. In Sichuan Province, a "defense area system" in which warlords, big and small, are stationed in different areas and pay on the spot is gradually formed. In order to raise military salaries and make huge profits, warlords all over the country set up their own coin making institutions to start casting Sichuan copper coins and double banner 200 Wen copper yuan. In 1933, the Chongqing Branch of the Bank of China compiled a brief history of the financial turmoil in Sichuan, which recorded: "after the rise of the five armies of the people.". In the past five years, civil wars have been frequent, and the military and civil finance has been fragmented. All the large divisions, brigades and regiments, and the small ones, the county and township governments, have all purchased their own hand cranks. They buy money and make money at will, so that they can be used to support them. " Most of the copper coins privately minted by warlords in various regions are Sichuan copper coins with large denominations of 100 Wen and 200 Wen coins of Shuangqi. Therefore, there are a lot of "Han" characters of 100 Wen and double banner 200 Wen copper yuan format. Although strictly speaking, only the copper coins cast by Chengdu mint and Chongqing Tongyuan bureau can be regarded as the authentic version of Sichuan's Republic of China period, due to the historical background of the separatist regime of the warlords in Sichuan during the period of the Republic of China, the copper coins cast by the warlords in various places were completely equivalent to those of the original copper coins cast by the Chengdu and Chongqing copper coin factories. Therefore, it is very difficult to treat this kind of copper coins produced by warlords in private factories as the same as that of private copper coins, which can only be regarded as official currency.
此錢幣正面中心直書“貳百文”面值，兩旁分列嘉穗圖案，上沿銹年號“中華民國二年”，下沿銹廠名“四川造幣廠造”，左右分列十字花星。鑄工精美，文字規范，英文書寫正確，紋飾清晰，當為民國2年(1913年）四川建幣廠早期鑄造品。背中央為交叉雙旗圖，外環殊圈，上沿銹英文“THE REPUBLIC OF CHINA”(中華民國)，下沿銹英文“200 CASH（200仙)，這是民國時期四川銅元中唯一使用英文的一種。民國二年（1913年）四川省鑄幣，黃銅質。民國成立時，由于幣制尚未建立，主要的造幣廠，大都仍沿用前清鋼模鑄造錢幣，以供流通需要。而四川改鑄四川銅圓，僅二百文。后國民政府發行統一幣模，各地方錢幣即停止鑄造發行，因而鑄造量少，流通時間短，極其珍貴。民國二年四川二百文雙旗幣，藏品經歷了無窮歲月但紋路依然清晰可見，上面的銹跡也見證了其歷史的積淀。此民國四川二百文雙旗幣銅幣材質珍貴是鑄造錢幣中的精品錢幣，包漿自然，包老包真。具有較大的保值和升值空間，將成為收藏投資領域中的一匹黑馬。它是一枚具有很高收藏價值的精品銅元，也是鑄造錢幣中很重要的一個品類，甚至可以說是民國銅元的主體品種。其未來價值的升值無可限量。
On the obverse side of the coin, there is a face value of "two hundred Wen", with jiasui pattern on both sides. The upper edge of the coin has the name of "the second year of the Republic of China", and the lower side is the name of the rust factory "made by Sichuan MINT", and the left and right sides are arranged with cross shaped stars. With exquisite workmanship, standard writing, correct English writing and clear ornamentation, it should be the early casting product of Sichuan jianminhang in 1913. In the middle of the back is a cross Double Flag picture with a special circle on the outer ring. The upper edge of the rust is "the public of China" (Republic of China), and the lower edge is "200 cash (200 immortals), which is the only English language used in Sichuan copper yuan during the period of the Republic of China. In 1913, the coins of Sichuan Province were made of brass. When the Republic of China was founded, because the currency system had not yet been established, most of the major mints still used the steel mould of the former Qing Dynasty to cast coins for circulation. However, it is only 200 Wen. After the national government issued a unified coin mold, local coins stopped casting and issuing, so the quantity of coins was small, the circulation time was short, and it was extremely precious. In the second year of the Republic of China, the collection of 200 Wen Double Flag coins in Sichuan has gone through endless years, but the lines are still clear, and the rust on them also witnesses the accumulation of its history. The two hundred Wen double banner copper coins of the Republic of China in Sichuan Province are precious in material, and they are high-quality coins in the casting of coins. It will become a dark horse in the field of collection and investment. It is a high-quality copper coin with high collection value. It is also a very important category of coin casting. It can even be said that it is the main variety of copper yuan in the Republic of China. There is no limit to the appreciation of its future value.
雙旗二百文銅元由于不是單一鑄造者生產，故其版式亦相應較多。僅僅是有明顯差異的版式也在數十種以上。雙旗二百文銅元可按其幣背交叉雙旗下垂之旗纓不同而分為兩大類版式，旗纓垂直下垂者，代稱“直纓版”；旗纓環繞旗桿下垂者，俗稱“曲纓版”。
Because Shuangqi 200 Wen copper coin is not produced by a single foundry, its format is also relatively more. Only there are more than dozens of different formats. Two hundred Wen coins can be divided into two types according to the different patterns of the two flags hanging down on the back of the coin. The vertical hanging of the flag tassel is referred to as the "straight tassel plate"; the one with the flag tassel hanging around the flagpole is commonly known as the "Qu Ying plate".
雙旗二百文直纓版又分紅、黃銅質兩種。其黃銅質者，鑄工精美，文字規范，英文書寫正確，紋飾清晰，當為民國2年(1913年）四川建幣廠早期鑄造品。現存世之雙旗二百文銅元中，直纓版數量較少，僅占百分之一二。雙旗二百文直纓版紅銅質者，大多鑄工粗糙，文字浮淺。英文書寫大小不一。雙旗二百文紅銅質直纓版與黃銅質直纓版相比較，二者大相徑庭。紅銅質直纓版非成渝兩地造幣廠所鑄，應無疑義。曾有人認為雙旗二百文直纓版紅銅質者為川陜蘇維埃根據地仿鑄，其用途是為了前往白區購買物資。據現在所知的材料證明，川陜蘇維埃根據地正式鑄造銅質貨幣的時間為1933年(民國22年)，其早期生產工藝為手工打制。1933年10月，紅軍攻占達縣，繳獲四川軍閥劉存厚的造幣廠。同年11月，川陜蘇維埃造幣廠在通江正式成立，從此開始機鑄銅質貨幣。1933年時．四川境內已全部使用川銘嘉穗圖200文銅元(即俗稱之小200文銅元)，川銘嘉穗200文銅元重僅四錢，其從民國15年(1926)出籠以來，原在四川境內流通十余年的雙旗二百文（重七錢）及“漢”版一百文（重五錢八分)、“漢”版五十文(重五錢)盡皆隱匿不見，或被收回改鑄，或流入兩湖地區。川銘嘉穗小200文銅元在川省白區已流通多年的情況下，川陜蘇維埃根據地如仿鑄白區銅幣。亦不會仿鑄雙旗二百文直纓版，而只能是仿鑄川銘嘉穗小200文銅元。這樣更合乎情理。更何況1933年(民國22年)時，四川境內大小軍閥紛紛自設造幣機構，大肆濫鑄川銘嘉穗小200文銅元。劉存厚設在達縣的造幣廠亦不能例外。故紅軍繳獲的劉存厚造幣廠機器設備中，其鑄幣模具亦應當是小200文印模。川陜蘇維埃造幣廠以其仿鑄白區銅元順理成章。
Double Flag two hundred Wen straight tassel version and bonus, brass two kinds. The bronze is of exquisite craftsmanship, standard writing, correct English writing and clear ornamentation. It should be the early casting product of Sichuan jianminchang in 1913. Among the existing two hundred Wen copper coins of the double banner, the number of Zhiying edition is relatively small, accounting for only 1.2%. Most of them were rough and superficial. English writing varies in size. Compared with the brass straight tassel plate, the two pieces are quite different. There is no doubt that the red copper straight tassel plate was not made by the mints of Chengdu and Chongqing. It was once thought that the red copper with two hundred Wen straight tassels in Shuangqi was imitated from the Sichuan Shaanxi Soviet base, and its purpose was to purchase materials in the white areas. According to the materials known now, it is proved that the copper coins were officially minted in the Sichuan Shaanxi Soviet base in 1933 (the 22nd year of the Republic of China), and the early production process was handmade. In October 1933, the Red Army captured Daxian county and seized the mint of Sichuan warlord Liu Cunhou. In November of the same year, the Sichuan Shaanxi Soviet Mint was officially established in Tongjiang, from then on, it began to machine cast copper coins. In 1933, Sichuan Province had already used the 200 character copper yuan (commonly known as the small 200 character copper yuan) in Sichuan Province. The 200 character copper yuan of Sichuan Ming jiasui was only four coins. Since it was released in 1926 in the Republic of China, the two hundred characters (heavy seven coins) of Shuangqi, one hundred characters of the "Han" version (five coins and eight Fen) and fifty characters (heavy five coins) of the Han version, which had been circulating in Sichuan for more than ten years, were all hidden It can be recovered and recast, or flow into the area of two lakes. Sichuan jiasui small 200 Wen copper yuan has been in circulation for many years in the Sichuan Shaanxi Soviet base, such as the imitation of the white area copper coins. It can't imitate and cast the two hundred character straight tassel plate of Shuangqi, but can only imitate the small 200 bronze yuan of Sichuan mingjiasui. This is more reasonable. What's more, in 1933 (the 22nd year of the Republic of China), the warlords in Sichuan Province set up their own coin making institutions, wantonly casting 200 bronze coins of jiasui in Sichuan. Liu Cunhou's Mint in Daxian is no exception. Therefore, among the machines and equipment of Liu Cunhou's Mint seized by the Red Army, its coinage mould should also be a small 200 character one. The Sichuan and Shaanxi Soviet Mint was reasonable in that it imitated the copper yuan in the white area.
華夏文明上下五千年，歷史文化源遠流長。每一個歷史發展的階段都是我們國家成長的足跡“四川造幣廠造雙旗幣二百文”也正是這歷史長河中組成的重要部分。就其特定的歷史時期和價值也使它在錢幣史上占據著重要的地位，它不僅代表著中國的貨幣文化，也反映了我國歷史、經濟、金融的興衰和滄桑。
Chinese civilization has a long history of 5000 years. Every stage of historical development is the footprint of our country's growth. "Sichuan Mint made two hundred Wen double banner coins" is also an important part of this long history. It not only represents China's currency culture, but also reflects the rise and fall of China's history, economy and finance.
