大清铜币铸造始于1900年，也就是清光绪二十六年，但由于各省铸行铜元毫无节制，于是，在1905年也就是光绪三十一年，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”。主要目的是为了整顿和统一币制，试图将铸币权收归国有，加强控制。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。

此枚鄂字版大清铜币重约：6.9g  直径约：2.82cm大清铜币正面珠圈内书汉文“大清铜币”四字，中心铸“鄂”字，珠圈外上端左右两侧分镌干支纪年“丙午”二字，珠圈外两侧中间镌省份“户部”二字。币“鄂”字版，背面是一条栩栩如生的神龙。上下数千年，龙已渗透了中国社会的各个方面，成为一种文化的凝聚和积淀。此枚大清铜币“鄂”字版脉清晰，铜色自然，有温润的包浆，以上乘优质的铜为原材质，形制规整，属市场中自然流通货币的精品。

清末铜价剧涨，民间毁钱为铜，以获数倍之利，市面出现钱荒。广东因停铸制钱，市面制钱日乏，到后面慢慢停止流通。钱币正面鲜然可见满汉文化的融合，而钱背却明确标示了西方文化的介入。表现出了当时的国际政治、经济、文化的交融，极具历史意义。 是集收藏与投资于一身的难能可贵的精品！

Foundry of Qing copper coins began in 1900, that is, the 26th year of Guangxu in Qing Dynasty. However, due to the unrestrained casting of copper coins in various provinces, in 1905, that is, the 31st year of Guangxu, the Hubu Mint General Factory set up by the Qing government in Tianjin began casting new copper coins. The main purpose is to rectify and unify the monetary system, try to nationalize the coinage right and strengthen control. Foundry began in 1900 (the 26th year of Guangxu in Qing Dynasty) and ended in 1911 (the third year of Xuantong), with short circulation time. Because of its elegant layout design, excellent carving, and extremely rare existence in the world, the ten coins made by the household department in Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty are regarded as one of the top ten famous products in modern Chinese coin making.

This E-shaped version of Daqing Copper Coin weighs about 6.9g and has a diameter of about 2.82cm. There are four characters of "Daqing Copper Coin" written in Chinese in the front bead circle of Daqing Copper, and the word "E" is cast in the center. The words "Bingwu" are inscribed on the left and right sides of the upper end of the bead circle, and the words "Hubu" of the province are inscribed in the middle of the two sides of the bead circle. On the back of the coin "E", there is a lifelike dragon. For thousands of years, dragons have penetrated all aspects of Chinese society and become a kind of cultural cohesion and accumulation. This Qing copper coin "E" has clear veins, natural copper color and warm patina. It is made of high-quality copper and has regular shape. It is a fine product of natural currency in the market.

n the late Qing Dynasty, copper prices rose sharply, and people destroyed money for copper, so as to gain several times of profits. There was a shortage of money in the market. Guangdong stopped casting to make money, and the market was running out of money, so it slowly stopped circulating in the back. On the front of coins, the fusion of Manchu and Han cultures is rarely seen, while on the back of coins, it clearly indicates the intervention of western culture. It shows the blending of international politics, economy and culture at that time, which is of great historical significance. It is a valuable boutique that combines collection and investment!
