清咸豐年間(1851-1861年)，太平天國農民起義開展迅猛，并在江蘇南京建都，此刻清政府賴以鑄錢之用的滇銅，因路途阻斷而無法運進北京。一方面是打壓起義急需許多的軍餉開支，一方面是鑄錢的原材料告缺，給清政府造成了嚴峻的財務困難，最終迫使清政府自咸豐三年開端發行紙幣和改鑄大錢來補償財務虧空。咸豐朝寶泉局所鑄錢有“當百”、“當二百”、“當三百”、“當五百”、“當千”等五種面值。
During the reign of Xianfeng in the Qing Dynasty (1851-1861), the peasant uprising of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was carried out rapidly, and the capital was established in Nanjing, Jiangsu Province. On the one hand, the suppression of the uprising needed a lot of military expenses. On the other hand, the shortage of raw materials for money casting caused severe financial difficulties for the Qing government, which eventually forced the Qing government to issue notes and change into large money to compensate for the financial deficit. The coins of Baoquan Bureau in Xianfeng Dynasty had five denominations: Dang Bai, Dang 200, Dang 300, Dang 500 and Dang Qian.
咸豐大錢就是在這樣的大背景下產生的。咸豐元寶當千錢幣是這些重鑄的大錢里面面值最高的品種，但是如今的存世的量十分稀少。該枚咸豐元寶當千，銘文字體雕刻得精致而又清晰，錢幣表面則清秀俊朗，刻著“咸豐元寶”四個字，背穿上下“當千”，左右滿文雕刻寶局名，“寶源”兩字橫排。再讀錢文，可見無論面文還是背文，其楷書書意皆為端莊正點，筆劃有力，筆鋒鮮明，布局協調規范，寶源局鑄品之書意神韻昭然，歷史過渡性自然，為錢幣珍品。形制規整，大小合適，包漿老道，銹色自然，歲月流痕鮮明，流通使用痕跡明顯，銅質精巧。其傳世品質色品貌一目了然矣。由于咸豐元寶當前錢幣流傳下來的不多，存世的十分稀少，所以該錢幣是十分珍貴的，很值得收藏。

The inscriptions are exquisite and clear. The surface of the coin is clear and elegant. It is engraved with "Xianfeng Yuanbao" on its back. The name of the treasure is engraved in Manchu on the left and right, and the two characters "Baoyuan" are arranged horizontally.

It has regular shape, proper size, old-fashioned slurry coating, natural rust color, distinct flow mark of years, obvious circulation and use trace, and exquisite copper. Its handed down quality, color and appearance are clear at a glance. Because there are not many coins of Xianfeng Yuanbao handed down at present, the coins are very precious and worth collecting.
續觀鑄體，其雕刻甚為規整，邊圓廓正，平整地章；錢文清晰，字廓高凸；穿口干凈，輪邊整修，整體雕刻相甚端。藏品雖已飽經百年歷史的風霜洗禮，幣面卻無太大的磨損，品相很好，十分精致，是當千錢幣里的精品。咸豐年的錢幣在整個清代仍是排名前列，此幣為咸豐錢幣中的精品，價值將更高一層，是錢幣收藏品中難得一見的珍品。

Although the collection has been weathered by the wind and frost of a hundred years of history, the coin face is not too worn, and the appearance is very good, very exquisite, which is the best among thousands of coins. The coins of Xianfeng year are still in the forefront of the whole Qing Dynasty. This coin is a high-quality coin in Xianfeng, and its value will be higher.

咸豐元寶是中國古代錢幣之一。咸豐元寶一直被收藏家們視作無價之寶。地域性政權發行貨幣的時間也相當短，加上流通地域狹小，所鑄貨幣價值不菲。另外，由于發行紙鈔，導致銅幣發行量較少，故價格也較高。古錢幣的背部多為光面，也有少數有星紋、月紋、四出紋、祥云紋、瑞雀紋等特殊記號和表示錢監、鑄造年代的文字。咸豐元寶背星月紋大錢，目前相對來看，五十、當百稍多，其中尤以當五百少見，當千尤為少見。
Xianfeng Yuanbao is one of the ancient Chinese coins. Xianfeng Yuanbao has always been regarded as priceless by collectors. The time of issuing currency by the regional regime is also quite short. In addition, the circulation area is narrow, and the value of the currency is high. In addition, due to the issue of paper money, resulting in a small number of copper coins, so the price is also high. The back of ancient coins is mostly smooth, and there are also a few special marks such as star pattern, moon pattern, four out pattern, auspicious cloud pattern, auspicious bird pattern, etc., and the characters indicating the date of Qian Jian and casting. Xianfeng Yuanbao back star moon pattern large money, relatively speaking, 50, when 100 slightly more, especially when 500 rare, when 1000 is rare.
