艺术品简介：

袁大头是民国时期主要流通货币之一，“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，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”在货币收藏界被称为银元之宝，它是中国近千种近代银币中流传最广、影响最大的银元品种，也是近代中国币制变革中的一个重要角色。

铸币之上当政者有国泰民安、吉祥如意之愿景，民间收藏，寓意“家和万事兴”之吉祥之宝，故有很高的收藏研究价值。

Introduction to art:

Yuan Datou was one of the main circulating currencies in the Republic of China. Yuan Datou is a colloquial term for Yuan Shikai's series of coins, which is strictly called "Yuan Shikai carries Jiahe silver coins on his back". In order to rectify the currency system, in February 1914, the Beiyang government promulgated 13 articles of the national currency regulations and decided to implement the silver standard system. According to the regulations of the state on currency, the unit with the price of 6.4% and 8.0% of the bank level pure silver is named as yuan, one yuan silver coin with the total weight of 7.2% silver, 89% silver and 11% copper, and the number of one yuan silver coin is unlimited, that is to say, one yuan silver coin is used as the standard loan currency for unlimited repayment. According to this regulation, in December 1914 and February 1915, the general mint and Jiangnan Mint successively issued a silver coin with the head of Yuan Shikai engraved on it, commonly known as "Yuan tou coin" or "Yuan Da tou".

"Yuan Datou" is known as the treasure of silver dollar in the field of currency collection. It is the most popular and influential silver dollar variety among nearly one thousand modern silver coins in China, and it is also an important role in the currency system reform of modern China.

The rulers above the coins have the vision of national peace, good luck and good luck, folk collection, and auspicious treasure of "home and everything", so they have a high value of collection and research.
