Recommended Boutique ---Meiji eleven year one dollar coin
明治是日本明治天皇在位期间使用的年号。日本经过王政复古大号令及戊晨战争后，拥戴朝廷的诸藩，成立明治新政府。明治政府积极引入欧美各种制度及废藩置县，确立国家制度，设立帝国议会及制定大日本帝国宪法；以培植产业及加强军力为国策推进，急速地发展成近代国家。明治维新，是日本从封建主义到资本主义的转折点，也是日本从落后的封建国家到世界性的经济和军事大国的转折点。为适应大力发展资本主义，开展对外经济和商品贸易的需要，日本维新政府于明治三年（1870年）开始铸造面值为“一圆”的贸易银元，历时45年，直到大正三年（1914年）为止。金属流通货币是国家法定货币中重要而不可分割的组成部分，也是一个国家发达与文明的标志和象征，它不仅充当着国计民生在经济活动中不可缺少的价值尺度和交换手段，同时，还具有一定的艺术性和收藏价值。
Meiji was the name used during the reign of Emperor Meiji of Japan. After the restoration of the imperial order and the Wuchen War, Japan supported the vassals of the imperial court and established the new Meiji Government. Meiji government actively introduced various European and American systems and abolished prefectures, established the national system, established the Imperial parliament and formulated the Constitution of the Great Japanese Empire. With the cultivation of industries and the strengthening of the military as a national policy, it rapidly developed into a modern country. The Meiji Restoration was the turning point of Japan from feudalism to capitalism, and also the turning point of Japan from a backward feudal country to a world economic and military power. In order to meet the needs of vigorously developing capitalism and developing foreign economy and commodity trade, the Japanese Restoration government began to mint trade silver dollars with a face value of "one yuan" in the third year of Meiji (1870), which lasted 45 years until the Third year of Taisho (1914). Metal currency is an important and inseparable part of the national legal currency, and it is also a sign and symbol of a country's developed and civilized. It not only acts as an indispensable measure of value and means of exchange for the national economy and people's livelihood in economic activities, but also has certain artistic and collection value.

明治元年，日本由香港购得全套铸币机器（英国人的机器，1866至1868年曾在香港铸造过香港第一套货币），在大阪成立国家造币厂。明治三年(1870年)，造币厂落成，马上开铸银圆。将“圆”定为日本的本位货币，即实行银本位制度，日本初铸银圆，其意是驱逐当时在日本大肆横行的本洋、鹰洋，统一货币。日本龙洋历时45年，直到大正三年(1914年)止。后期为发展经济铸造了久长时间，使其在商业贸易中的地位不可替代，影响重大。据统计，共铸造了34个年号的日本龙洋，依次是：明治三年、七年、八年、九年、十年、十一年至三十年、三十四年至三十九年、四十一年、四十五年和大正三年，累计铸造贸易银元约两亿枚。大日本明治八年的龙洋银币是极其罕见，后来明治十一年至三十年龙洋的铸造量逐步递增，进入了日本龙洋的黄金时代。
In the first year of Meiji, Japan purchased a complete set of coinage machines from Hong Kong (the British machine, which had minted Hong Kong's first set of currency in Hong Kong from 1866 to 1868) and established a national mint in Osaka. In the third year of the Meiji period (1870), the mint was completed and silver rounds were immediately cast. The "circle" as the standard currency of Japan, that is, the implementation of the silver standard system, Japan initially cast silver yuan, which means to expel the local ocean and eagle Ocean that were rampant in Japan at that time, and unify the currency. The Japanese Ryoyo lasted 45 years, ending in the third year of Taisho (1914). Later for the development of economic casting for a long time, so that its position in commercial trade is irreplaceable, the impact is significant. According to statistics, a total of 34 years of Japanese Longyang were cast, in order: Meiji three years, seven years, eight years, nine years, ten years, eleven years to thirty years, thirty-four years to thirty-nine years, forty-one years, forty-five years and Taisho three years, a total of about 200 million silver dollars were cast for trade. Longyang silver coins in the eighth year of Meiji in Japan were extremely rare, and the minted amount of Longyang coins gradually increased from the eleventh year to the thirtieth year of Meiji, entering the golden age of Longyang in Japan.
相对于日本贸易银元，日本圆龙银元是近代流入我国的外国银元当中数量不多，也较为罕见的一个品种。日本“龙洋”早年在中国被称作“银洋”，它实际上是外国商贸银币在中国民间的一种简称。早在明朝中期，西班牙就已在墨西哥制造“本洋”银币（俗称“双柱”），至清代乾隆、嘉庆年间，中国对外贸易日趋繁荣，从外国流入中国的银币种类也日渐增多。日本“龙洋”共有五种规格，即五钱（1.25克）、十钱（2.7克）、二十钱（5.39克）、五十钱（有10.13克与13.48克两种样式）和一圆（26.96克）。日本“龙洋”设计别致，铸工较为精致。
Compared with the Japanese trade silver dollar, the Japanese round dragon silver dollar is a rare variety of foreign silver dollars flowing into our country in modern times. Japan's "dragon Ocean" was called "silver Ocean" in the early years of China, which is actually a short term for foreign commercial silver coins in Chinese people. As early as the middle of the Ming Dynasty, Spain had already manufactured "foreign" silver coins (commonly known as "double columns") in Mexico, and during the Qianlong and Jiaqing years of the Qing Dynasty, China's foreign trade was increasingly prosperous, and the types of silver coins flowing into China from foreign countries were also increasing. The Japanese "dragon" has five specifications, namely five money (1.25 g), ten money (2.7 g), twenty money (5.39 g), fifty money (10.13 g and 13.48 g) and one yuan (26.96 g). Japanese "Long Yang" design chic, casting is more exquisite.
日本银元中国旧时流入的日本银元之一。公元1871年由日本政府铸造。日本自明治维新(公元1868年)后采用银本位，并铸造银元，后虽改行金本位，但银元仍继续铸造。日本银元多在通商口岸使用，并随中日贸易的发展而流人中国，流通区域包括厦门、福州、九江、南昌、汕头以及北方的沈阳、大连等地。这种圆龙洋在当时铸造发行量就很小，经过岁月的洗礼，存世珍罕，币种稀少，具有极好的收藏价值。其铸工精良、流通痕迹明显。俗话说“物以稀为贵”，距离现代社会越早的银元，其对应的价值就会越贵。
One of the Japanese silver dollars imported into China in old times. It was minted by the Japanese government in 1871. After the Meiji Restoration (1868 AD), Japan adopted the silver standard and minted silver dollars, and although it changed to the gold standard, silver dollars continued to be minted. Japanese silver dollars are mostly used in treaty ports, and with the development of Sino-Japanese trade flows into China, including Xiamen, Fuzhou, Jiujiang, Nanchang, Shantou and Shenyang, Dalian and other places in the north. This kind of round longyang was cast at that time the circulation is very small, after the baptism of years, the world is rare, the currency is rare, and has excellent collection value. It has excellent casting and obvious circulation traces. As the saying goes, "things are rare and valuable", the earlier the silver dollar from modern society, the more expensive its corresponding value will be.
