1911年，辛亥革命勝利，中華民國宣告成立，結束了清王朝267年的統治。四川軍政府成立之初面臨財政窘迫的局面，因而迅速接管了四川成都造幣廠，決定鑄造“四川銅幣”應急。民國元年，四川軍政府命令四川成都造幣廠開模製造了“四川銅幣軍政府造”。
“軍政府造四川銅幣”是辛亥革命時期的產物。1911年12月發生“成都兵變”，以尹昌衡、羅綸為正副都督的四川軍政府取代了成立僅12天的大漢四川軍政府。由於在“成都兵變”中，原四川藩庫、大清銀行、浚川源銀行及各票號、錢莊、商店皆遭亂兵搶劫一空，新的四川軍政府成立之後即面臨著需用日繁、度支日絀的財政困窘局面。軍政府迅速接管了四川成都造幣廠，決定鑄造“四川銅幣”以應急。民國元年(1912年)4月，四川成都造幣廠奉四川軍政府之命，開模鑄造“軍政府造四川銅幣”(也稱“漢”字銅元)。

It is also a kind of high-grade collection with both appreciation value and use value. With its withdrawal from the circulation market, it is becoming more and more popular among collectors.
In 1911, the victory of the 1911 Revolution and the founding of the Republic of China ended the rule of the Qing Dynasty in 267. At the beginning of its establishment, the military government of Sichuan was faced with financial distress, so it quickly took over the Chengdu Mint and decided to forge "Sichuan Copper coin" for emergency. In the first year of the Republic of China, the military government of Sichuan ordered the Chengdu Mint in Sichuan to open a mould and make "Sichuan Copper coin military government made".
"Sichuan Copper coin made by the military government" was the product of the 1911 Revolution. In December 1911, the Chengdu Mutiny took place. The Sichuan Military Government, with Yin Changheng and Laurent as its chief and deputy governors, replaced the Sichuan Military Government, which had only been established for 12 days. In the Chengdu Mutiny, the former Sichuan Fanku, Daqing Bank, Junchuanyuan Bank and all ticket numbers, money banks and shops were robbed by rioters. After the establishment of the new Sichuan Military Government, it was faced with a financial dilemma that needed to spend more and more money. The military government quickly took over the Chengdu Mint in Sichuan and decided to coin "Sichuan Copper coin" for emergency. In April of the first year of the Republic of China (1912), the Chengdu Mint of Sichuan, under the orders of the Sichuan Military Government, cast the "Sichuan Copper coin made by the military government" (also known as the "Han" copper coin).
