大清银币宣统三年暗记（大清银币宣统三年）

宣统三年”大清银币经送样核定发行流通者为俗称“曲须龙”,此币除背面龙形不同外，正面与前章所述4种样币差异明显之处就在于“大清银币”四字笔画稍细。被釆纳后即投入生产，江南和湖北两厂在宣统三年五月开始制造新国币，预定年底正式发行。不料八月十九日(1911年10月10日)晚上，武昌新军起义，战火波及各地，市面动摇。总管江苏、安徽和江西三省军政事务的两江总督张人骏在八月二十六日急电清政府“鄂省变乱，裕宁官钱局大受影响，持票兑现者纷至沓来，应接不暇。宁省造币分厂尚有造成新币一百余万，请饬度支部飞饬该分厂，尽数拨交大清、交通二分行及裕宁总局，以备应付钞票行用”,批示“着度支部迅速酌核办理”。八月二十八日清廷饬令“造币分厂先拨新币五十万圆交裕宁总局及交通分行应用”。精心策划多年，终成正果的第一枚大清国币，就这样在没有举行任何发行仪式之下仓促面世了。

两江总督是清代位阶最高的封疆大臣之一，总管江苏、安徽和江西三省的军民政务。由于清初江苏和安徽两省辖地同属江南省，初时该总督管辖的是江南和江西，故称“两江总督”。江南裕宁官银钱局是光绪二十九年开办的，总局设于江宁(今南京),先后在江苏省重要城市如上海、镇江、扬州、海州、苏州、无锡等地设置分局。外省在湘、鄂、皖、赣等省城及重要市镇，也设有分支机构。两江总督急需现银稳定动荡的局势，朝廷也顾不了那么多了。

曲须龙“有点”与“无点”两大版式

宣三大清银币在当时原计划由天津、南京及湖北三地造币厂生产，其中，“宁、鄂两厂，定期先行开铸银圆。总厂则先铸铜币，以期早日实施新制”,故初期在天津总厂生产的数量相当有限。而1911年美国造币厂报告( Annual Report of the Director of the Mint,1911)内引南京美国领事报告：“当局准备新国币在南京厂生产800万枚，武昌厂生产200万枚……”显示确实如此。报告中还注明为区分生产地点，币上有以资识别的“记号”( ear mark,原意是在牛耳打上记号以表明所有人)。

大清银币版式多种多样，有长须龙（龙面的两个龙须较长）、短须龙（龙面的两个龙须较短）、反龙（相对曲须龙 龙身的朝向上是相反的）、大尾龙（算是“曲须龙”的一胎同胞兄弟）和曲须龙（龙面的两个龙须适中且弯曲）。今天主要介绍的是其中之一“曲须龙”。也就是最终选用的“国币”——大清宣三，乔治亲自设计其字面和龙面并进行雕刻。和其他四款样币相比，“曲须龙”可能少了一些夸张和革新，多了一些协调和传统，相信这是中西方雕刻师争执与妥协的结果，也是最终能通过“比稿”原因之一。事实上，“曲须龙”并不缺乏威严霸气，更是在细节上表现得更加细腻和精美，成为“国币”也就在情理之中了。

此枚宣统三年大清银币曲须龙版本，背面盘龙非常灵动，字迹清晰，边齿清晰，熠熠生光，龙纹威严霸气，彰显皇权，币身包浆自然，无刻意做旧嫌疑，是一件不可多得的精品。钱币正面上下缘皆为满汉文“宣统三年”，珠圈内铸有“大清银币”四字，左右两边分别铸有长枝菊花纹饰，细节上表现得细腻精美，其文字大气磅礴，厚重雄浑，尽显皇家威仪，该币整体品相精美，存世数量较为稀少，非常值得收藏投资。

宣统三年大清银币壹圆是中国近代机制币中的十大名誉品之一，宣统三年大清银币壹圆之所以名气大是由于他的历史性和珍稀性决定的。

The silver coins of the Qing Dynasty in the third year of Xuantong were approved to be issued and circulated by sending samples, which is commonly known as "quxulong". In addition to the different dragon shape on the back, the obvious difference between the front and the four sample coins mentioned in the previous chapter lies in the slight fine strokes of the four characters of the "silver coins of the Qing Dynasty". After it was adopted, it was put into production. Jiangnan and Hubei factories began to manufacture new national coins in May of the third year of Xuantong, which is scheduled to be officially issued at the end of the year. Unexpectedly, on the evening of August 19 (October 10, 1911), Wuchang new army uprising, the war spread all over the country and the market shook. Zhang Renjun, governor of Liangjiang, who is in charge of the military and political affairs of Jiangsu, Anhui and Jiangxi provinces, sent an urgent telegram to the Qing government on August 26: "the turmoil in Hubei Province has greatly affected the official money Bureau of Yuning, and ticket holders are overwhelmed. The Nanjing provincial Mint has still caused more than 1 million new coins. Please order the Du branch to fly to the branch and allocate all the money to Daqing, the second branch of communications and the General Administration of Yuning for the use of banknotes", The instruction "the landing branch shall review and handle it quickly". On August 28, the Qing court ordered "the mint branch to allocate 500000 new coins to the General Administration of Yuning and the branch of communications for application". The first national coin of the Qing Dynasty, which was carefully planned for many years and finally came to fruition, was rushed out without any issuing ceremony.

Liangjiang governor was one of the highest ranking frontier ministers in the Qing Dynasty. He was in charge of military and civil affairs in Jiangsu, Anhui and Jiangxi provinces. In the early Qing Dynasty, Jiangsu and Anhui provinces were both under the jurisdiction of Jiangnan province. At the beginning, the governor was in charge of Jiangnan and Jiangxi, so it was called "governor of Liangjiang". Jiangnan Yuning official bank and money Bureau was founded in the 29th year of Guangxu. The general bureau is located in Jiangning (now Nanjing), and has successively set up branches in important cities in Jiangsu Province, such as Shanghai, Zhenjiang, Yangzhou, Haizhou, Suzhou, Wuxi and so on. Other provinces also have branches in Hunan, Hubei, Anhui, Jiangxi and other provincial cities and important cities and towns. The governor of Liangjiang urgently needs the current bank to stabilize the turbulent situation, and the imperial court can't care so much.

Qu Xulong's two formats of "a little" and "no point"

At that time, Xuansan Qing silver coins were originally planned to be produced by mints in Tianjin, Nanjing and Hubei. Among them, "Nanjing and Hubei mints regularly cast silver coins first. The General Factory first cast copper coins in order to implement the new system as soon as possible". Therefore, the number of silver coins produced in Tianjin General Factory was quite limited in the early stage. In 1911, the annual report of the director of the mint (1911) quoted the report of the US Consul in Nanjing: "the authorities are preparing to produce 8 million Singapore coins in Nanjing factory and 2 million in Wuchang factory...". The report also indicates that in order to distinguish the place of production, there is an "ear mark" on the coin for identification, which originally meant to mark the ox's ear to indicate the owner.

There are various types of silver coins in the Qing Dynasty, including long bearded dragon (the two beards on the face of the dragon are longer), short bearded dragon (the two beards on the face of the dragon are shorter), anti Dragon (opposite to the direction of the body of the curved bearded dragon), big tail Dragon (regarded as the first sibling of the "curved bearded dragon") and curved bearded dragon (the two beards on the face of the dragon are moderate and curved). Today, we mainly introduce one of them, "Qu Xulong". That is, the final "national coin" - Xuansan of the Qing Dynasty. George personally designed and carved its characters and dragon face. Compared with the other four sample coins, "quxulong" may be less exaggeration and innovation, and more coordination and tradition. I believe this is the result of the dispute and compromise between Chinese and Western sculptors, and it is also one of the reasons why it can finally pass the "comparison". In fact, "quxulong" is not lack of majesty and domineering, but more delicate and exquisite in details. It is reasonable to become a "national currency".

This quxulong version of the silver coin of the Qing Dynasty in the third year of Xuantong is very flexible, with clear handwriting, clear side teeth and glittering light. The dragon pattern is dignified and domineering, showing imperial power. The coin body is wrapped naturally without deliberate suspicion of being old. It is a rare boutique. The upper and lower edges of the coin are full of Chinese characters "three years of Xuantong". The four characters "Qing silver coin" are cast in the bead circle, and the long branch chrysanthemum patterns are cast on the left and right sides respectively. The details are delicate and exquisite. The words are magnificent, thick and powerful, showing the royal majesty. The coin is exquisite in overall appearance and rare in number, which is very worthy of collection and investment.

The silver coin one yuan of the Great Qing Dynasty in the third year of Xuantong is one of the top ten reputation products in modern Chinese mechanism coins. The reason why the silver coin one yuan of the Great Qing Dynasty in the third year of Xuantong is famous is due to its historicity and rarity.
