清代末期是一個銀幣、紙鈔、銅幣并行的年代，而至嘉慶年間才開始發行新式銀元，直至光緒年間，金銀幣才較為廣泛的鑄行。據悉，兩廣總督張之洞曾于光緒十三年委托使英大臣在英國訂購全套造幣機器，并在廣東錢局首鑄機制銀元和銅元。其后，各省紛紛仿效，購制國外機械鑄造銀銅元，而光緒元寶就在這個時期應運而生。
At the end of Qing Dynasty, silver coins, paper money and copper coins went hand in hand, but new silver coins were not issued until Jiaqing, and gold and silver coins were widely cast until Guangxu. It is reported that Zhang Zhidong, Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, commissioned the British Minister to order a complete set of coinage machines in Britain in the 13th year of Guangxu, and first cast silver and copper coins in Guangdong Money Bureau. Since then, provinces have followed suit and purchased foreign mechanical casting silver and copper coins, and Guangxu Yuanbao came into being during this period.
這枚戶部光緒元寶二十文，錢幣珠圈內鈐有光緒元寶四字，上鈐有大清銅幣滿文，左右戶部二字，下鈐有當制錢二十文，標明錢值。背面鈐有四爪飛龍，上鈐有HU POO，下鈐有英文紀值；中央的飛龍自上至左向右環繞一周，龍頭置上，兩根龍須下垂，鼻梁突起，兩眼炯炯有神，龍紋精細，火球在下。其圖案圓潤凸起，錯落有致，有立體雕塑之感。光緒元寶承載著一個時代的社會背景和文化特色，深受歷史熏陶。此幣銅質細膩，呈色亦佳，品相精致，錢文清晰，為幣中珍品。
There are 20 letters of Guangxu Yuanbao in the coin bead circle, four characters of Guangxu Yuanbao in the upper ring, Manchu characters of Qing copper coins in the upper ring, left and right words of the household, and 20 letters in the lower ring for making money, indicating the value of money. There are four-clawed dragons in the back, HU POO in the upper and English records in the lower. The dragon in the center encircles from top to left to right, with the faucet set up, two dragons drooping, nose raised, eyes bright, dragon pattern fine, fireball under. Its pattern is round and convex, with a sense of three-dimensional sculpture. Guangxu Yuanbao bears the social background and cultural characteristics of an era and is deeply influenced by history. This coin is delicate in copper, good in color, delicate in appearance and clear in Qian Wen, which is a treasure in the coin.
珍稀古錢幣是貨幣歷史的實物，由于早已不在流通領域，留存下來的亦少之極少，更是歷史的見證。古錢幣極具觀賞性與歷史價值，因此古錢幣如同其他古玩一樣被藏家們所青睞。中國最早的機制洋式錢幣為光緒年間的“光緒元寶”，俗稱“龍洋”，因錢幣背面一般鑄有龍紋而得名。
Rare ancient coins are the real objects of monetary history. Because they are no longer in circulation, they are rarely preserved, which is a witness of history. Ancient coins have great ornamental and historical value, so they are favored by collectors like other antiques. The earliest mechanism-style coin in China was "Guangxu Yuanbao" in Guangxu period, commonly known as "Long Yang", which was named after the dragon pattern cast on the back of the coin.
