2020年新加坡拍賣精品推薦會
清代銀幣、紙鈔、銅幣并行,至嘉慶年間發(fā)行新式銀元,而光緒年間鑄行金、銀幣更多。洋務運動也影響到鑄幣業(yè),兩廣總督張之洞曾于光緒十三年(1887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。包括廣東錢局在內(nèi),許多造幣機均訂購自著名的英國倫敦伯明翰造幣有限公司。英國大工業(yè)的介入,使銀幣也沾染上西方色彩。錢幣正面鮮然可見滿漢文化的融合,而錢背卻明確標示了西方文化的介入。當制十文較多,當制二十文較少,具有很高的收藏價值,市面真品一幣難求!
In the Qing Dynasty, silver coins, paper money, and copper coins were placed side by side. During the period of Jiaqing, new types of silver dollars were issued. During the period of Guangxu, more gold and silver coins were cast. The Westernization Movement also affected the coinage industry. In the 13th year of Guangxu (1887), the Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, Zhang Zhidong, commissioned the British Minister to order a full set of coinage machines in the United Kingdom, and first made silver and copper coins in the Guangdong Money Bureau. Since then, the provinces have followed suit and bought foreign machinery to cast silver and copper dollars. Including the Guangdong Money Bureau, many mints were ordered from the famous Birmingham Mint Ltd. in London, England. The involvement of British industry has made silver coins also contaminated with Western colors. The front of the coin rarely shows the integration of the Manchu and Han cultures, while the back of the money clearly indicates the intervention of Western culture. There are more than ten essays and less than twenty essays, which has a high collection value. It is hard to find a real coin in the market!
