Private minting money, numismatic term. Privately minted coins, private minted money is generally worse than the official furnace money process; from silver to writing there are some differences. However, the amount of existence is very small, and it is even rarer to survive now, and the private coinage in each time zone has a very high historical value and research value, and the coin manufacturing process can fully reflect the development of society at that time and the reform and progress of the process. It can better reflect the "stubborn disease" that is difficult to cure in the issuance of money in China's feudal society.
Regarding the private minting of money, Quanjie confessed, which is mainly because it is in fact also a kind of circulation coin, and non-private coinage is usually worse than the official coinage in terms of minting technology and raw materials, so the preservation value is lower than that of the official coinage. Although private coinage is extremely easy to mix with counterfeit money.
General private coinage is simply the local coinage where the composition is not up to standard, and the local coinage includes: large money banks, warlord coinage during wartime, and even the coinage of some large families! These coins were called private coins, and there is a point that these private coins were not, and they were all approved for circulation and use at that time. There is some truth to the existence of these private coins.
"Yuan Datou" represents the monetary culture of modern China, reflects the rise and fall and vicissitudes of the mainland's modern history, economy and finance, has a high artistic appreciation value and cultural relics value, and also has a certain function of value preservation and appreciation. At present, the number of "Yuan Datou" retained by the private sector is not too much, and silver is a precious metal, and the collection risk is small, which is very suitable for investment and collection.
Yuan Datou was one of the main circulating currencies in the Republic of China period, "Yuan Datou" is a colloquial colloquial name for the Yuan Shikai statue series of coins, strictly called "Yuan Shikai like back Jiahe silver coin". After the Xinhai Revolution, Yuan Shikai took office as "provisional president" and later became the official president. At that time, in order to consolidate the stability of the domestic political situation, develop the national economy, and also prepare for the "constitution-making" and "claiming the emperor", the "National Currency Regulations" were promulgated, and it was resolutely decided to "unify the currency system" throughout the country.
After the fall of the Qing Dynasty, Yuan Shikai became president in April 1912. In view of the complexity of coinage and paper money at that time, the Beiyang government decided to mint national currency in view of the complexity of coinage and paper money at that time, the circulation of more than one hundred kinds of Chinese and foreign currencies, the different specifications, the chaotic circulation, the cumbersome conversion, the people's resentment, and also wanted to use currency restructuring to solve the problem of military expenditure. In order to improve his dominance, Yuan Shikai minted his head on the surface of the coin, and the "Yuan Datou" was derived.
Privately cast version of Yuan Datou for three years
Privately cast versions are collectively referred to as private imitations, mostly made by hand or semi-hand stamping, or cast by turning sand. The common feature of this type of privately minted silver coin is that it imitates the official minted regular silver coin, borrowing the credibility and influence of legal tender as an equivalent currency, and has been used and circulated within a certain range. The basic identification requirements for privately cast versions have the following characteristics:

1. Imitate the official minted Yuan large front plate silver dollar, the pattern, size, thickness, weight are close to the regular mechanism coins, most of the years are "republic of China three years", but also "republic of China eight years of manufacturing", "republic of China nine years of manufacturing", "republic of China ten years of manufacturing" and so on.

2. The process is simple and the production is rough. Because local warlords and folk crafts cannot catch up with the official production conditions or levels, there is a clear difference between the privately cast version and the official version, either the font is not standardized, or the front of Yuan Shikai's head is deformed, or the back of the "Jiahe Map" is chaotic, or the production is simple and rough.
Roughly made
3. Different sizes and light weight. Privately minted silver coins vary in size, uneven thickness and thickness, do not match the standard weight in weight, are generally lighter, and are currently found to be the lightest less than 20 grams, and occasionally there are overweight versions of more than 27 grams, but this is only an isolated phenomenon.

4. The casting amount is limited and the regionality is strong. Although the privately cast version is simple in craftsmanship, rough in production and low in color, the price in the market has always been higher. Privately cast versions circulate in a certain area, the amount of casting is small, the amount of existence is small, and scarcity is the direct driving force that causes its price to climb, which is in line with people's excavation or pursuit of historical and cultural diversification for collectors.

From the perspective of historical research, these privately minted editions of Yuan Datou in the three years of the Republic of China have left a local mixed use record in China's financial history, coupled with the limitations of circulation, so the amount of existence is relatively small, in the collection of Yuan Datou silver dollar varieties, it is more difficult to buy an authentic privately cast version than to buy an official cast version. All in all, with the deepening of people's understanding of the privately cast version, its economic value and historical value are high, and it will become higher and higher in the future, which is also the fundamental reason for the imbalance in the market value of the private and official cast versions.
