精品鉴赏——安徽省造光绪元宝每元当制钱十文
自广东制造铜元获利甚丰后，各省纷纷效尤。光绪二十八年（1902年），安徽巡抚聂缉椝奏准在安庆原银圆局旧址成立安徽铜元局，增添造币机器二十部，模具可能来自日本或其自制。据记载，英国伯明翰造币厂曾提供“飞龙”钢模，但未见大量铸造。自此开始安徽便具备了自助铸造银元铜元的工艺，其先后铸造多版机制币。
“安徽省造”光绪元宝，钱币正面珠圈内铸汉文“光绪元宝”四字，上环为“安徽省造”，下环为“每元当制钱十文”，藏品背面神龙纹路清晰，如刀刻所成，铸造工艺神乎其技，且龙身纹路精美，并有云海衬托，四周英文环绕。元宝包浆自然，历史留下的痕迹清晰可见，藏品在柔和的光线下散发出一种淡淡的灵气，收藏价值较高。
钱币作为法定货币，除了在流通领域中具有价值尺度、流通手段、支付手段、贮藏手段和世界货币等职能以外，还有一种特殊职能——收藏价值。钱币的收藏价值主要包括四大方面，艺术欣赏，知识与功能，文物价值以及保值增值等几个方面。无论是金属币还是纸币，都具有纪念性意义，更是意味着朝代更替，历史的沉淀。

Since the production of copper yuan in Guangdong has made great profits, various provinces have followed suit. In the twenty-eighth year of Guangxu (1902), the governor of Anhui, Nie Jizhu, established the Anhui Copper Yuan Bureau on the site of the original Yinyuan Bureau in Anqing, adding 20 coinage machines. The molds may come from Japan or their own. According to records, the British Birmingham Mint once provided "Flying Dragon" steel molds, but no large number of castings have been seen. Since then, Anhui has been equipped with the process of self-made silver and copper coins, and has successively cast multiple versions of machine-made coins.
"Made in Anhui Province" Guangxu Yuanbao, the four Chinese characters "Guangxu Yuanbao" are cast in the bead circle on the front of the coin, the upper ring is "Made in Anhui Province", and the lower ring is "Ten Wen for Every Yuan to Make Money". The back of the collection has a clear dragon pattern. Like a knife carving, the casting process is superb, and the dragon body has exquisite patterns and is set off by the sea of clouds, surrounded by English. Ingots are paved naturally, and the traces left by history are clearly visible. The collection exudes a faint aura under soft light, which is of high collection value.
As legal currency, coins have a special function-collection value in addition to the value scale, circulation means, payment means, storage means and world currency in the circulation field. The collection value of coins mainly includes four aspects, art appreciation, knowledge and function, cultural relic value and value preservation and appreciation. Both metal coins and banknotes are of commemorative significance. It also means the change of dynasties and the precipitation of history. 返回搜狐，查看更多
