儒行天弈精品推荐-民国三年袁大头

清朝灭亡之后，1912年4月袁世凯出任大总统。北洋政府鉴于当时铸币、纸币十分复杂，流通的中外货币在百种以上，规格不一，流通混乱，折算繁琐，民众积怨，同时也想借助货币改制以解决军费问题，便决定铸发国币。袁世凯为了提高自己的统治地位，把他的头像铸于币面，“袁大头”由此而来。

“袁大头”是对袁世凯像系列硬币的口语俗称，严谨点说叫“袁世凯像背嘉禾银币”。北洋政府为了整顿币制，划一银币，于民国三年（1914年）二月，颁布《国币条例》十三条，决定实行银本位制度。《国币条例》规定："以库平纯银六钱四分八厘为价格之单位，定名为圆"，"一圆银币，总重七钱二分，银八九，铜一一"，"一圆银币用数无限制"，即以一圆银币为无限法偿的本位贷币。根据这一规定，于1914年12月及1915年2月， 先后由造币总厂及江南造币厂开铸一圆银币，币面镌刻袁世凯头像，俗称"袁头币"或"袁大头"。

袁大头主要分为4个大版本：民国三年，民国八年，民国九年，民国十年。其余年份的袁大头都不是由官方铸造，是有地方军阀私铸版本，流通性不强。此枚袁大头为民国三年版本，有官方铸造而成，重量直径符合标准。保存依然较为完好，钱币立体生动，整体包浆入骨，熟旧自然，字体端正工整，清秀俊逸，可见匠师的雕刻工艺十分精湛，而且具有极高的投资价值和收藏价值。

After the demise of the Qing Dynasty, Yuan Shikai became President in April 1912. In view of the complexity of coins and bank notes at that time, the circulation of more than 100 kinds of Chinese and foreign currencies with different specifications, chaotic circulation, complicated conversion, and people's accumulated resentment, the Beiyang government decided to make use of currency restructuring to solve the problem of military expenditure, and decided to issue the national currency. In order to improve his ruling position, Yuan Shikai cast his head on the coin surface and "Yuan Datou" came from it.

"Yuan Datou" is a colloquial name for Yuan Shikai's image series of coins. Strictly speaking, it is called "Yuan Shikai's image carries Jiahe silver coins". In order to rectify the currency system, Beiyang government unified a silver coin. in February of the third year of the Republic of China (1914), it promulgated 13 articles of the national currency regulations and decided to implement the silver standard system. The National Currency Ordinance stipulates that "the unit with a price of 6.8% of Kuping sterling silver is named as a round", "a round silver coin has a total weight of 7.2%, silver 89, and copper 11", "there is no limit on the number of coins used in a round silver coin", that is, a round silver coin is used as the standard loan currency for unlimited repayment. According to this regulation, in December 1914 and February 1915, the Mint General Factory and Jiangnan Mint respectively started casting a round silver coin with Yuan Shikai's head engraved on it, commonly known as "Yuan Tou Coin" or "Yuan Datou".

Yuan Datou is mainly divided into four major versions: three years of the Republic of China, eight years of the Republic of China, nine years of the Republic of China and ten years of the Republic of China. In other years, Yuan Datou was not officially cast, but was privately cast by local warlords, and its circulation was not strong. This Yuan Datou is a three-year version of the Republic of China. It was officially cast and its weight and diameter meet the standard. The coins are still relatively well preserved. The coins are three-dimensional and vivid. The whole coins are covered with pulp. They are old and natural. The fonts are regular and neat. They are handsome and elegant. It can be seen that the craftsman's carving techniques are very exquisite and have extremely high investment value and collection value.
