During the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty, the earliest mechanism of Chinese Western-style copper dollars was the "Guangxu Yuanbao" of the Guangxu Period, commonly known as "Longyang", named because the back of the coin was generally minted with dragon patterns. Rare ancient coins are the physical objects of monetary history, because they have long been out of circulation, because they have experienced many wars since the Qing Dynasty, and very few have survived, which is a witness to history. A variety of silver coins were issued, collectively known as the "Guangxu Yuanbao". What can be passed down to this day is already worth millions.
At the end of the Qing Dynasty, the price of copper rose sharply, and the people destroyed money for copper to obtain several times the profit, and there was a shortage of money in the market. Due to the suspension of minting money in Guangdong, the market money production is becoming scarce, and the circulation of small amounts is very inconvenient. In order to save the money shortage, and under the influence of Hong Kong copper dollars and foreign currencies, in June 26, Guangxu Governor Deshou and former Governor Li Hongzhang played the Guangdong imitation Hong Kong copper immortal minting mechanism copper dollar. Therefore, the casting of copper dollars by the Qing Dynasty mechanism began in Guangdong. Then Fujian, Jiangsu, Sichuan and other provinces have successively cast copper dollars.
With 95% of red copper, 4% of white lead, and 1% of tin, each weighs two coins, and when making money, it is ten pieces. Ancient coins are of great ornamental and historical value, so ancient coins are favored by collectors like other antiques. The earliest mechanism of Chinese Western-style silver dollars is the "Guangxu Yuanbao" of the Guangxu period, commonly known as "Longyang", named because the back of the copper coin is generally minted with a dragon pattern.
In China, collectors are extremely fond of coins with the totem of the dragon, because the Chinese nation is the descendant of the dragon, and the totem of the "dragon" is a mascot for the sons and daughters of China. In folklore, the dragon on the back of a coin can increase a person's luck, so that it is always under the protection of the dragon's qi and avoids evil. Therefore, this pair of dragon pattern Guangxu Yuanbao has always been loved by collectors.
