光绪元宝是大清光绪年间流通大面值货币之首,由两广总督张之洞率先引进英国铸币机器铸造银元和铜元,之后各省纷纷仿效。共有十九个省局铸造,除中央户部,地方省所铸铜元,皆在其正面上缘镌写省名。是我国首批引进海外技术的印发流通货币,对于现今也蕴藏了一定历史意义。纵观近几年的藏品市场,各类珍奇异石不乏可陈,然而,对于那些本身现存量极少,在市场上异军突起的明清钱币或者民国货币而言,则更容易受到藏品大咖们的注意和亲睐。同时,随着各地拍场古钱币交易的次数愈加频繁,且因它为大众藏友们带来的价值不菲,使得钱币在各地拍场中所占据的地位越来越高从过去几年各地拍场的交易数据显示,钱币的交易依然持续火热,展现出其深厚的收藏底蕴。种种新闻数据表明,安徽省造光绪元宝在诸多古币类别中,依然是今天艺术品收藏市场中的翘楚,在2019年的保利钱币专场,安徽省钱币为整场成交价最高,引起了钱币收藏界的轰动。

钱币正面双圈,内圈新疆通宝,中心五瓣梅花装饰,外圈为中华民国当红钱二十文币值,而铜币收藏中赫赫有名的新疆红线说的就是此钱币,此币正反面氧化一致,有明显的氧化包浆,其锈迹自然,放大后可见颗粒感,为开门真品,实属罕见。
这一面为双旗图案,双旗交叉,中间一禅杖,体现了新疆佛学文化极深,左右双旗为五色旗,线条笔直为最早期的双旗币版本,后期的双旗币五色旗都为波浪状,双旗中间以缠枝纹与乳钉纹装饰,十分精美古韵十足。
双旗币是民国开端使用的第一种铜币,符合收藏学里的‘藏头’标准,它也是2000多年封建王朝覆灭后的第一个民主社会货币,具有巨大的纪念价值,由龙纹转变为双旗,意义非凡。大家都知道民国多年抗战,战争中需要大量的子弹,而制作子弹最好的材料就是民国时期的铜币,从而导致大量民国铜币被毁制作成弹壳,使目前的双旗币极为稀少,而这种新疆红线就更为罕见了,是不可多得的馆藏级钱币。

反面,也是分为内圈和外圈两大部分,不一样的是,钱币的外圈两侧各有一只飞龙图案,象征着吉祥如意,因为正面有两只蝙蝠,蝙蝠的“蝠”字与幸福的“福”读音相同,所以将其铸刻在钱币的正面,因为飞龙是皇权的象征,所以既显示了福气之意,又展现出皇权的威严,还与内圈中的寿字相对应,呈现出“福寿双全”的美好之意,可谓是意蕴深厚,值得藏友们去细细品味。
上图双圈的外圈左右各一条龙,顶端一颗龙珠,双龙都朝龙珠升腾而去,两条升龙寓意着步步高升,国家昌盛,再看内圈的寿字,整体呈圆形,像极了龙珠,而这枚钱币本意就是为慈禧太后贺寿而打造的,其寓意吉祥,历史考证价值极高。
试铸币
定义:以检验制造流程、设备状态为目地,验证产品是否可达到设计目标的实验币,我们称之为试铸币。
机制币的生产,从祖模设计、工具模翻制,从铜料熔炼,到压轧铜板、制作铜饼、晃洗、退火、滚边、印花、质检、入库运输等,前后涉及到的工艺流程有十几个环节,需要不同技术工种紧密配合,可以说机制币的生产过程,完完全全就是一个现代工业生产流水线过程。
试铸币,质量好,品质高。这是错误的,多数试铸币是存在缺陷的,且基本都是回炉销毁。偶有流出,也未必质量好,一般都是使用铜币来进行试铸的,但这丝毫不影响它的价值,反而比流通币价值高出数倍。
在封建社会历来是男尊女卑的,几千年里历来都只有皇上以及朝代命名的钱币,就连唯一的女皇帝武则天,也只是在钱币模具留下了她的指甲印,形成了背月钱币,为太后而铸造的钱币可以说是前无古人后无来者,这在钱币中堪称一绝,‘藏绝 ’才是收藏中的首选,而且品相完美,寓意吉祥,在钱币收藏领域是属于极品宝钱,见到真品的藏家极少,而试铸币就更为罕见了,能收藏到此银币更是靠缘分了,其收藏价值不可估量。
