大清铜币版式繁多，尤以当十者为最。多位清帝在位时发行过铜币来作为流通货币，铜币的使用具有重要的现实意义和历史意义，使交易逐渐便利起来。而如今，大清铜币也具有一定的收藏价值，许多收藏家对大清铜币爱不释手，而收集多种多样的铜币已经成为了他们的目标。
大清铜币，学名清代机制铜圆，钱面中央有“大清铜币”四个汉字，内嵌一小字代表地名，上端是满文“大清铜币”字样，两侧为年份。边缘中间分别“户部”二汉字，下端为“当制钱十文”。钱背中央为蟠龙，上端是“光绪(或宣统)年造”，下端英文“Tai-Ching Ti-Kuo Copper Coin”字样(大清帝国铜币)。



      当时清政府各个地方省铸造都比较统一，铸造始于1900年（清光绪二十六年），止于1911年（宣统三年），流通时间较短。因其版面设计优雅，雕刻精良，且存世量极为稀少，大清铜币光绪年户部造当十被誉为中国近代制币中的十大名誉品之一，堪称精品钱币。
大清铜币户部，学名清代机制铜圆，钱面中央有“大清铜币”四个汉字，内嵌一小字代表地名，上端是满文“大清铜币”字样，两侧为年份。边缘中间分别“户部”二汉字，下端为“当制钱十文”。钱背中央为蟠龙，上端是“光绪(或宣统)年造”，下端英文“Tai-Ching Ti-Kuo Copper Coin”字样，大清帝国铜币。


      当时由于各个省份铸行铜元毫无节制， 清政府便着手整顿和统一币制，试图将铸币权收归国有，加强控制。1905年(光绪三十一年)10月，清政府在天津设立的户部造币总厂开始铸造新式铜元“大清铜币”，并颁布《整顿圜法章程十条》，其中规定：“铜元成色定为用九七紫铜，三厘白铜，原用听锡一厘”;“重量定准当二十者重库平四钱，当十者重库平二钱，当五者重库平一钱，当二者重库平四分”;“统一制造大清铜币，由户部颁发祖模，均与总厂所铸一律，惟于正面加铸省名一字，以便查考。每次铸出，均须呈送财政处户部化验，并由财政处户部随时遵派要员前往稽查”，“各省所铸铜币，应令该省所设官钱公估等局，酌量市面情形定价，随发随收，持之以信”;“各省所铸铜币， 不得大宗贩运出生活上，若各省需用铜币，可备价至总厂领取”。所以现今留存下的铜圆才都是精品。


      “大清铜币”当十铜圆共有十九个省局铸造。除中央户部铸造者外，地方各省所铸铜圆，皆在其正面中央镌刻阴文或阳文省名简称。这一时期铜元的显著特点，正面均钤有汉文“大清铜币”字样，左右边缘分列“户部”和干支纪年文字， 后期去掉“户部”， 仅留干支纪年文字， 上缘列满文“大清铜币”， 下缘列纪值文字; 背面为统一蟠龙， 又称“部颁龙”或“大清龙”， 上缘前期为“光绪年造”、后期为“宣统年造”字样，下缘为英文“TAI—CIIING—TI—KUO COPPER COIN”， 汉译为“大清帝国铜币”。此枚为户部鄂字版，保存至今，品相完好，是钱币收藏中的精品。本公司有幸征集到一枚马先生的大清铜币户部 欢迎前来参观

There are many types of copper coins in Qing Dynasty, especially when the coins are ten. Many Qing emperors issued copper coins as currency in their reign. The use of copper coins has important practical and historical significance, making the transaction more convenient. Today, the Qing copper coins also have a certain collection value. Many collectors love the Qing copper coins, and collecting various kinds of copper coins has become their goal.
Qing copper coin, the scientific name of the Qing dynasty's mechanism copper circle, has four Chinese characters " Qing copper coin" in the center of the coin face, embedded with a small character representing the place name, with the word " Qing copper coin" in Manchu on the top and the year on both sides. In the middle of the edge are the two Chinese characters " Hubu" and the bottom is " When Making Money, Ten Characters". The central part of Qian Bei is a panlong, with " Guangxu ( or Xuantong ) made in the year" at the top and " Tai - Ching Ti - Kuo Copper COIN" at the bottom.
At that time, all the local provinces of the Qing government were relatively unified in casting, which started in 1900 ( the 26th year of Guangxu reign of the Qing dynasty ) and ended in 1911 ( the 3rd year of Xuantong reign ), with a short circulation time. Because of its elegant layout, excellent carving and extremely rare storage, the household department of the Qing copper coin in Guangxu was praised as one of the ten most famous coins in China's modern coin making, and it was called a fine coin.
The official name of the Qing copper coin household department is the Qing dynasty mechanism copper circle, with four Chinese characters " Qing copper coin" in the center of the coin face, embedded with a small character representing the place name, with the words " Qing copper coin" in Manchu on the top and the year on both sides. In the middle of the edge are the two Chinese characters " Hubu" and the bottom is " When Making Money, Ten Characters". The central part of Qian Bei is a panlong, with " Guangxu ( or Xuantong ) made in the year" at the top and " Tai - Ching Ti - Kuo Copper COIN" at the bottom, the copper coin of the Qing empire.
At that time, the Qing government began to rectify and unify the currency system, trying to nationalize the right of minting coins and strengthen its control, because the provinces cast copper coins without restraint. In October 1905 ( the 31st year of Guangxu ) the Qing government set up the Household Mint General Factory in Tianjin to start casting a new type of copper coin " Qing Copper Coin" and issued the " Ten Articles of Association of Rectification Law", which stipulates: " The fineness of copper coin is set at 97 copper, three percent white copper and one percent tin. " When the weight is set at 20, it will be equal to four dollars, when the weight is equal to two dollars, when the weight is equal to one dollar, and when the weight is equal to four cents". " The unified manufacture of Qing copper coins was issued by the Household Department, all of which were identical to those cast by the General Factory, but the name of the province was added to the front for examination. Every time they are cast, they must be submitted to the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Finance will send important officials to inspect them at any time. " The copper coins cast by each province should be ordered to be priced according to the market situation, and they should be accepted as soon as they are sent. " Copper coins cast in various provinces are not allowed to be trafficked out of life in large quantities. If copper coins are needed in various provinces, they can be purchased at the General Factory. Therefore, the copper coins left behind today are all high-quality goods.
" Qing copper coin" was cast by 19 provincial bureaus when it was ten copper circles. Except for those cast by the central household department, all copper circles cast by local provinces have their names inscribed in the center of the front face in either the Chinese or the Yangwen provinces for short. The remarkable characteristics of the copper coins in this period are that the front of the coins is printed with the words " Qing copper coins" in Chinese, the left and right edges are respectively printed with the words " household department" and " official branch year" and the latter is removed with the words " official branch year" only, the upper edge is printed with the words " Qing copper coins" and the lower edge is printed with the word " official branch year". On the back is the unified panlong, also known as the " ministerial dragon" or " Qing dragon", with the words " Guangxu made in the early stage" and " Xuantong made in the later stage" on the upper edge and " tai - ciiing - ti - kuo copper coin" on the lower edge, translated into Chinese as " Qing empire copper coin". This coin is the Hubei version of the Household Department. It has been preserved to this day and its appearance is intact. It is a fine product in the collection of coins. Our company has the honor of collecting Mr. Yima's Qing copper coin residence department and welcome to visit it
