“光緒元寶”是中國早的機制幣，是中國近代機制幣中的十大名譽品之一，俗稱“龍洋”，因錢幣背面一般鑄有龍紋而得名。其具有重要的現實意義和歷史意義，且加上清末、民國戰亂連連等因素，一些較珍貴的光緒元寶銀元品種存世量已稀少，收藏價值高。許多收藏家對它趨之若鶩，爭相起價.北洋的銀元發展歷程映襯著中國晚清貨幣政策的進與退，每一次斷檔也刻錄著一次歷史的顛簸。瞭解造幣史和造幣廠的變遷過程，不僅可以理解銀元的歷史價值，同時也會對不同時期銀元的種類、成色、龍紋特徵、齒邊特徵等方面提高認知。

光緒元寶是清朝光緒年間流通的貨幣之一。由湖北兩廣總督張之洞率先引進英國鑄幣機器鑄造銀元和銅元，之後各省紛紛仿效。共有十九個省局鑄造，除中央戶部，地方省所鑄銅元，皆在其正面上緣鐫寫省名。1793年首次在西藏鑄行“乾隆寶藏”銀幣。1821年到1850年年間，臺灣福建等地也曾仿製銀圓，稱為銀餅。1890年開始正式鑄造銀元“光緒元寶”（即龍洋），各省紛起效尤。民國時期建立銀本位貨幣制度以後，也以銀元作為主要流通幣。“光緒元寶”當時共十九個省局鑄造。除中央戶部，地方省所鑄銅元，皆在其正面上緣鐫寫省名。計有：1戶部；2北洋；3吉林；4奉天；5清江；6浙江；7江南；8廣東；9山東；10福建；11湖南；12湖北；13四川；14江西；15河南；16安徽；17廣西；18新疆；19黑龍江。
Guangxu yuan bao was one of the currencies in circulation during the reign of emperor guangxu of the qing dynasty. Zhang zhidong, governor of hubei province, introduced the British coinage machine to cast silver and copper yuan, and the provinces followed suit.

據瞭解，錢幣收藏一般分為紙幣、金銀紀念幣和古錢幣三大類，而古錢幣中銀元一直是一大熱點。因為銀元材質珍貴，藝術價值高。北洋機器局初鑄銀元是在光緒十五年，面值僅“一元”一種，是天津官造的呈樣銀幣，未流通，直至光緒二十二年，始鑄流通銀幣。“大清光緒二十二年北洋機器局造”，面值有“一元”、“五角”、“兩角”、“一角”、“半角”五種。是中國套以元為單位的計值銀幣。公元1903年7月，提出銀幣專由造幣總廠製造，保留南洋（江南）、北洋、廣東、湖北四局為分廠。銀幣材質珍貴，藝術價值高，由貴重金屬或白銀合金鑄造，製作精美，圖案考究，文字清秀，內容豐富，銀光燦爛，其貌可人。

It is a Chinese silver coin measured in yuan. In July 1903, it was proposed that silver COINS be made exclusively by the coinage general factory, and that nanyang (jiangnan), beiyang, guangdong and hubei bureaus be retained as branch factories. Silver coin is precious in material and of high artistic value. It is made of precious metal or silver alloy. It is exquisitely made, with exquisite patterns, elegant characters and rich contents.
