光绪元宝是清朝光绪年间流通的货币之一。由湖北两广总督张之洞率先引进英国铸币机器铸造银元和铜元，之后各省纷纷仿效。共有十九个省局铸造，除中央户部，地方省所铸铜元，皆在其正面上缘镌写省名。计有：1户部；2北洋；12湖北；7江南；15河南； 11湖南；14江西；9山东；8广东；5清江；6浙江；13四川； 10福建；17安徽；3吉林；4奉天；18广西；19*疆新**；20黑龙江。
北洋造光绪元宝北洋龙洋在中国近代机器铸币史上属一个大系列，其铸期历时甚长（从光绪22年—光绪34年[1896至1908年]），历经十余载，币模几经更替，即使同一铸造年份亦往往由于修模、币材、工艺技术、工厂管理等诸多因素，造成版别异常繁杂。
北洋政府（1912年~1928年）是指中华民国前期以袁世凯为首的晚清北洋军阀在政治格局中占主导地位的中国中央政府，于1913年10月6日袁世凯当选中华民国首任正式大总统后形成。
北洋政府是中国历史上第一个以和平的方式完整继承前朝疆域的政权，也是中国继清朝灭亡后第一个被国际承认的中国政府。
经“庚子”之乱后，在督造官吏“李鸿章，王文韶，周学熙，荣禄”等重臣上奏朝廷后，“北洋机器局”又得以获准继续铸造钱币权。后“北洋机器局”更名为（北洋铸造银元总局），其后所铸钱币都镌为“北洋造”。

孙中山头像中华民国开国纪念币（俗称“小孙头”或者“孙小头”）来历，至1911年底辛亥革命之后，1912年1月3日，中华民国政府成立，由于币制尚未建立，除四川改铸大汉银币，福建改铸中华元宝外，主要的造币厂，大都仍沿用前清钢模铸造银币，以供流通需要。图案采用大总统孙中山肖像，以后的通用银币再改花纹式样。孙中山令财政部行文，同意鼓铸纪念币，并命令其余的通用银币新花纹，“中间应绘五谷模型，取丰岁足民之义，垂劝农务本之规”，训令财政部速制新模，分令各省造币厂照式鼓铸。不久，财政部就颁下新模给江南(南京)、湖北、广东等造币厂依式铸造，这就是“中华民国孙中山像开国纪念币”的由来。
中华民国开国纪念币是近代中国钱币中的精品，有着历史熏陶，是价值很高的革命*物文**，具有深远的历史纪念意义；同时，还是考古和研究中国历史文化难得的实物。 珍贵的中华民国“开国纪念币”记录了辛亥革命惊天动地的伟大历史，由于历经百年风雨，“开国纪念币”存世量极为稀少，尤其是品相好的更为稀缺，因此很受收藏爱好者青睐。

中文名称：孙中山开国纪念币
英文名称：The founding COINS of sun yat-sen

品相：美品
孙中山头像中华民国开国纪念币银元，正面中央为孙中山侧面肖像，边缘内上镌中文隶书体“中华民国”4字、下镌“开国纪念币”5字、左右长枝花饰。背面中央为中文隶书体“壹圆”及嘉禾，边缘英文“中华民国”、“壹圆”，左右分列五角星(后改为六角星)。直线边齿，成色89%，俗称“小头”。该币作为中华民国国币发行。中华民国孙像开国纪念币银元，由于铸造厂家不一，铸造年代不同，雕刻师英语水平不高，除正背面主要图案未变外，其花饰细节、英文字母均有变异，特别是英文字母差错较多。这就形成了该币的多种版别。传世较广的主要有两种：一种是五角星版式，一种是六角星版式。
国民政府又在广州成立，民国15年迁武汉，民国16年(公元1927年)定都南京。为纪念国父孙中山丰功伟绩，中央所铸货币均用国父像，南京、天津诸造币厂于民国16年、17年重新铸造中华民国孙像开国纪念币。银元正面及背面基本上与前品相同，而左右上方分列六角星。由于该币正背面图案比较正规，中英文没有差错，又设置六角星，故称其为六角星版。袁世凯窃取大总统后，该币即停铸，因时间短暂，流用不多，尤显珍贵。
据考究寓意注解： 隶书“民”→流行将「民」字最后一划拉长，其解释为*翻推**满清，象征民主胜利(人民出头)，也宣示乃大众的政府。 梅花→左右五瓣梅花各一支，五权宪法意者也。后即以此为国花（五权指：立法权、司法权、行政权、弹劾权和考试权）。 豆、麦穗→民国元年三月二日，孙中山颁布临时大总统令，对新造货币式样作了规定《拟另刊新模，鼓铸纪念币，…其余通用新币，中间应绘五谷模型，取丰岁足民之义，垂劝农务本之规》五谷指：稻、黍（即黄米）、稷（即谷子）、麦、菽（即豆）。 三叶→背，中间壹圆二字，而辅以嘉禾各一支，每支一穗三叶，三民主义意也（三民主义主要包括民族主义、民权主义和民生主义）。
这枚银币是罕见的六星版，孙中山被称为国父，开国纪念币是2000多年封建王朝转变为民主社会的第一见证货币，我们称它为六星孙小头，也叫它为国父币，更是‘藏头’中的一绝，藏住了民国的开端，见证了封建王朝的覆灭，由以前的龙纹，自诩为真龙天子的家族政权，演变为以民为主社会，这枚开国纪念币历史研究价值非常，收藏价值极高，是收藏界里宠儿。
袁大头”，是对铸造于民国初年镌有袁世凯侧面头像壹圆银币的一种俗称。因其首铸于民国三年，又有称“民三”者，此类别称由来已久。作为民国军阀银币的领头羊，“大头”系列对钱币收藏爱好者来说，并不陌生。“袁大头”银元的诞生，也是银元发展的必然结果。在辛亥革命后，袁世凯为了解决军费和提高个人政治地位而发行的银元货币，因这些银元铸有他的侧身图像而得名。
袁大头”代表了中国近代的货币文化，反映了我国近代历史、经济、金融的兴衰和沧桑，具有很高的艺术观赏价值和*物文**价值，也具有一定的保值和升值功能。目前民间留存的“袁大头”数量已经不算太多，而且银属于贵金属，收藏风险较小，非常适合投资和收藏。

民国三年版正面为袁世凯侧面像，上列“中华民国三年”。“年”字后没有“造”字，其他年版都在“年”字后面有一“造”字。三年版“民”字中有一“点”，而其他年版民字无“点”。三年版有老模和新模两种模具，老模具为185道边齿，新模具为170道边齿，这枚袁大头正反面氧化一致有明显的褐黑色氧化银包浆，字迹清晰轮廓分明表现压力十足，包浆自然，为不可多得的开门老银币。
氧化银是棕褐色立方晶系结晶或棕黑色粉末，不溶于水，易溶于酸和*水氨**。受热易分解成单质。在空气中会吸收二氧化碳变为碳酸银。
背面：嘉禾二本，左右交互，下系结带，中铸“壹圆”二字。这些年，在银元收藏界，有一个名字，始终不乏耳闻，那就是“袁大头”，特别是这几年，随着金银价格走强以及市场的火爆，许多老银元的市场价格都有了多倍的涨幅，其中部分版本特殊，品相良好，存世稀少的珍品，更是不可估量。
袁大头中的极品民国三年袁大头，这一年的袁大头发行量最少，因为他在当时是一个错版的存在，一般的袁大头都是七个字，多了一个‘造’字，在所有袁大头中只有民国三年的袁大头是没有造字的，在看红圈所标记处，民字是多一点的，这也是与其它钱币很大的一个区别，下方红圈标记处，我们可以看到袁大头人像与内齿接触的地方是少一个内齿的，这也是内行人鉴定钱币真假重要的一点，这枚钱币整圈就少这一个内齿，当时的目的就为了来防伪的，而后期仿制的钱币是没有注意到这个细节的。
只要百度搜索银币，就会介绍是以袁大头为代表来表现银币，可见其地位之根固。这枚钱币包浆自然，底光柔和，且字迹图案清晰，内齿规整，无连齿现象，整体十分美观，为什么钱币爱好者喜欢收藏有包浆的钱币呢，因为你把包浆洗掉，白银又会开始新的氧化过程，且包浆是鉴定新老钱币最好的依据。有了包浆的钱币，就像是有了一层保护层，几乎不再氧化，更好保存收藏，这枚民国三年袁大头版本特殊，极其稀有，适合收藏，传世。具有极高的历史研究价值，贵金属理财属性，含银量很高，是钱币收藏中的黑马。
