Boutique Recommendation - Yuan Datou Group 1
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，划一银币，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”。
Yuan Datou was one of the main circulating currencies during the Republic of China period, and "Yuan Datou" is a colloquial term for the Yuan Shikai statue series coins. To be precise, it is called "Yuan Shikai statue carrying Jiahe silver coins". In order to rectify the currency system, the Beiyang government unified the silver currency and issued Article 13 of the National Currency Regulations in February 1914, deciding to implement the silver standard system. According to the Regulations on National Currency, "the unit of price is based on six coins and four quarters and eight centimeters of pure silver in Kuping, and it is named as a yuan", "one yuan silver coin, with a total weight of seven coins and two cents, eight or nine silver coins, and one copper coin", and "there is no limit to the number of silver coins used in one yuan", that is, one yuan silver coin is the standard currency with unlimited legal compensation. According to this regulation, in December 1914 and February 1915, the Mint General and Jiangnan Mint successively minted one yuan silver coins with the head of Yuan Shikai engraved on the surface, commonly known as "Yuan Tou Coin" or "Yuan Datou".
