该币直径3.9厘米，重27克左右。湖北省造（本省）光绪元宝库平七钱二分银币是大名誉品，是“中国银币二十大珍”之一，银元四大天王之一或银元十珍之一，存世量极为稀少，殊为珍罕。

The coin is 3.9 cm in diameter and weighs about 27 grams. The silver coin of Ping Qi Qian, a treasure house of Guangxu made in Hubei Province, is a famous and famous product. It is one of the "top 20 treasures of silver coins in China", one of the four heavenly kings of silver dollars or one of the ten treasures of silver dollars. It is very rare in the world.

钱币正面鲜然可见满汉文化的融合，而钱背却明确标示了西方文化的介入。此币正面上缘铸：“湖北省造”四字，中间珠圈内铸：（满•汉文“光绪元宝”）四字；左右各铸一“六瓣花星”纹饰；下缘铸计重：“库平七钱二分”六字；面文笔划浑厚，文字鼓凸，纹饰深竣，字迹清晰，如斧削刀切，钱文线条透露出一股抑扬顿挫的刚毅之气。

The integration of Manchu and Han culture is rarely seen on the front of the coin, while the back of the coin clearly indicates the intervention of western culture. On the upper edge of the obverse, the words "made in Hubei Province" are cast, and in the middle bead circle, the words: (man · Chinese "Guangxu Yuanbao") are cast; Cast a "six Petal Flower Star" pattern on the left and right; The weight is cast on the lower edge: "Kuping seven coins and two cents"; The surface writing has thick strokes, bulging characters, deep decorative patterns and clear handwriting, such as axe cutting and knife cutting. The lines of Qian Wen reveal a spirit of cadence and perseverance.

背面上下环英文，左右两侧各加铸“本•省”二字。上缘铸：英文省名“HU-PEH PROVINCE”；下缘铸英文计重：“7 MACE AND 2 CANDAREENS”字样。中间铸一：“坐龙”（蟠龙）图案别致，铸造工艺精湛，雕刻精美，做工精细，浮雕感强烈，显得非常清晰；蟠龙眼神灵异炯炯有神，龙鳞雕刻细密有致，身姿遒劲有力，龙身盘踞，龙鳞细腻，线条优美，流畅堪然，定睛一看仿佛一条翱翔天际的神龙，栩栩如生，惟妙惟悄，尽展皇家威严大气。

The upper and lower rings on the back are in English, and the words "Ben • province" are added on the left and right sides. Upper edge casting: English provincial name "hu-peh offer"; The lower edge is cast with the words "7 mace and 2 candareens" in English. Cast one in the middle: "sitting dragon" (flat dragon) has unique pattern, exquisite casting technology, exquisite carving, fine workmanship, strong relief feeling and appears very clear; The eyes of the coiled dragon are vivid and bright, the Dragon scales are carefully carved, the posture is strong and powerful, the dragon body is entrenched, the Dragon scales are delicate, the lines are beautiful, smooth and comfortable, and when you look at it, it looks like a divine dragon flying in the sky, lifelike, vivid and quiet, showing the royal majesty and atmosphere.

1893年（光绪十九年）10月，湖广总督“张之洞”会同湖北巡抚“谭洵”向清中央政府奏呈铸造银圆的《请铸银元折》奏折，朝廷阅后允准，湖北省遂筹建（湖北省银元局）。光绪二十年（1894年），张之洞将位于武汉“三佛阁街”的原“守备署”改建为湖北银元局（湖北省银元局)，并模仿“广东省造·第三版银元”的式样铸造“湖北省造·（光绪元宝）”。此时共有三种面值，即：“库平七钱二分、库平一钱四分四厘、库平七分二厘”。

In October 1893 (the 19th year of Guangxu's reign), governor Zhang Zhidong of Huguang and governor Tan Xun of Hubei Province played the memorial of "please cast silver yuan" to the central government of the Qing Dynasty. With the permission of the imperial court, Hubei Province prepared to establish (Hubei Provincial silver yuan Bureau). In the 20th year of Guangxu (1894), Zhang Zhidong rebuilt the original "garrison office" located in "sanfoge Street" in Wuhan into Hubei Yinyuan Bureau (Hubei Yinyuan Bureau), and forged "made in Hubei Province (Guangxu Yuanbao)" imitating the style of "made in Guangdong Province · third edition of Yinyuan". At this time, there are three denominations, namely: "Kuping seven cents, Kuping one penny four cents and Kuping seven cents and two cents".

初铸时银币背面龙图的左右两边镌刻“本省”二字，其意是与外省银圆有所区别，但此（本省）二字因不符政府“铸币形制规定”，政府责令收回重铸，将“本省”二字去掉。

At the beginning of the coinage, the word "this province" was engraved on the left and right sides of the dragon on the back of the silver coin, which means that it is different from the silver circle of other provinces. However, because the word (this province) does not comply with the government's "Regulations on Coinage form", the government ordered it to withdraw and recast and remove the word "this province".

由于《湖北省造（本省）光绪元宝》银圆开铸时间短，铸额少，又加之不便于流通而遭回收兑换和销毁，故未销毁留存至今的极为稀少，特别是品相完美者，犹为罕见。

Due to the short casting time and small amount of silver coins in the Guangxu Yuanbao made in Hubei Province, and the recovery, exchange and destruction due to inconvenient circulation, it is extremely rare that the silver coins have not been destroyed and retained, especially those with perfect appearance.

因“本省”两字有画蛇添足之嫌，在市场上流通不久便废止停铸，故存世罕见，深受泉界重视。

Because the word "this province" is suspected of painting a snake and adding feet, it was abolished and stopped casting soon after it was circulated in the market. Therefore, it is rare in the world and is deeply valued by the spring circle.

当时这是针对清咸丰以来铜原料供给紧张，致使铜铸制钱与白银的比价动荡不稳，并急速向“钱贵银贱”趋势发展的情况而采取的一项必要的经济措施，其目的就是用于平仰湖北境内钱银的兑价，稳定经济，并间接抵制外地、外洋所造银元，而使用范围仅限于湖北省境内及邻近省城的州县。

Since the rapid development of copper and silver in Hubei Province, it is necessary to take the measure of "comparing the price of silver and silver" with that of foreign countries, which is aimed at the unstable supply of copper and silver in Hubei Province, The scope of use is limited to the prefectures and counties in Hubei Province and adjacent provincial cities.

与普通湖北光绪银币不同的是该银币在背面龙图两侧加铸“本省”两字，以示与外省有所区别。这在中国铸币史上唯此一例，殊为夺目，其币名也由此而得。但由于当时银、钱比价的起伏动荡，不仅是银、钱复本位币制的先天性缺陷，同时也是全国性乃至全球性的银、铜原料供需变化所造成的，而当时实际上已经出现了从银元一元可以换制钱一千二百文降至八百四十文的情况，再加之推行此币时采取的是强制性行政命令，规定商民应缴各项赋税制钱须以一千比一的兑换率到官方专设机构兑换成“本省”银元，再行赋税缴纳，所以此项政令遭到了民间的强烈抵制，并且与此配套的湖北“本省”银币，也在滞碍难行的情况下被大量回收溶化，散落民间的，廖廖无几。故此，湖北省造（本省）光绪元宝库平七钱二分银币存世量极为稀少，殊为珍罕。

Different from the ordinary Hubei Guangxu silver coin, the silver coin has the words "Bensheng" on both sides of the dragon on the back to show its difference from other provinces. This is the only example in the history of Chinese coinage, which is very eye-catching, and its coin name is derived from it. However, due to the fluctuation of the price ratio between silver and money at that time, it was not only a congenital defect of the silver and money standard currency system, but also caused by the changes in the supply and demand of silver and copper raw materials nationwide and even globally. In fact, at that time, it had been reduced from 1200 Wen to 840 Wen, In addition, when implementing this currency, a mandatory administrative order was adopted, stipulating that all taxes payable by businessmen must be converted into "local" silver dollars at an exchange rate of 1000 to 1 in an official special institution, and then the tax should be paid. Therefore, this decree was strongly resisted by the people, and the supporting Hubei "local" silver coins were also recycled and melted in large quantities when it was difficult to carry out, There are few scattered among the people. Therefore, the silver coins of seven coins and two cents in the Guangxu yuan treasure house made in Hubei Province are very rare.

公元1895年（光绪二十一年），（湖北省银元局）根据清政府的旨意，又重制模具，新铸了第二版“湖北省造·光绪元宝”银币。此次铸造的银币，一共有五种面值。分别为：“库平七钱二分、库平三钱六分、库平一钱四分四厘、库平七分二厘和库平三分六厘”。随着新版“湖北省造·光绪元宝” 的大量铸造发行，后进入市场流通至光绪三十四年（1908年）。

In 1895 (the 21st year of Guangxu), according to the will of the Qing government, the (Hubei Provincial Yinyuan Bureau) remade the mold and cast the second edition of "made in Hubei Province · Guangxu Yuanbao" silver coins. The silver coins minted this time have five denominations. They are: "Kuping 7.2%, Kuping 3.6%, Kuping 1.4%, Kuping 7.2% and Kuping 3.6". With the large-scale casting and distribution of the new version of "made in Hubei Province · Guangxu Yuanbao", it entered the market and circulated until the 34th year of Guangxu (1908).

清代机制锻造始于1898年，止于1908年，锻造流转10余年，鼎盛时期全国有十九省二十局开机锻造银元。史载“光绪元宝”其时共十九个省局锻造。计有:1户部；2北洋；3吉林；4奉天；5清江；6浙江；7江南；8广东；9山东；10福建；11湖南；12湖北；13四川；14江西；15河南；16安徽；17广西；18新疆；19黑龙江。

Mechanism forging in the Qing Dynasty began in 1898 and ended in 1908. The forging circulation lasted for more than 10 years. At its peak, 19 provinces and 20 bureaus started forging silver dollars. According to history, "Guangxu Yuanbao" was forged by 19 provincial bureaus at that time. There are: 1 household; 2 Beiyang; 3 Jilin; 4 Fengtian; 5 Qingjiang River; 6 Zhejiang; 7 Jiangnan; 8 Guangdong; 9 Shandong; 10 Fujian; 11 Hunan; 12 Hubei; 13 Sichuan; 14 Jiangxi; 15 Henan; 16 Anhui; 17 Guangxi; 18 Xinjiang; 19 Heilongjiang.

在1988年5月上海银元铜元拍卖会上，以62万元天价成交，创国内银元拍卖价最高纪录。

At the Shanghai silver and copper dollar auction in May 1988, the transaction was sold at a sky high price of 620000 yuan, setting a domestic record for the highest auction price of silver and copper dollars.
