江南省造戊戌年光绪元宝(1898年)库平七钱二分银币(大英文珍珠龙长刺),系光绪二十四年(1898年)官铸公开发行的机制银币.江南省（南京），是我国重要的通商口岸之一。清代时期，随着对外贸易的日益发展，对银币的需求量也就逐年增加，外国银元逐渐占领了中国的流通市场。广东和湖北最初开始铸造银元的时候，江苏省每年要拨银两给湖北省，兑换湖北银元流通使用。两江总督刘珅一于光绪22年（1896年）上奏朝廷，请求开铸银元。批准后在南京建造造币厂。光绪23年（1897年），开始铸造江南省光绪元宝银币，江南省银元分为若干干支年银元，版别也是中国银元最多的。本品传世包浆,美品。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。

 

因其背蟠龙纹鳞甲别致，如颗颗珍珠镶嵌，故得别名“珍珠龙”版。图照可鉴，其无论文字和纹饰，皆十分精到，凸凹鲜明，文字笔划和纹饰线条圆滚，显示模具冲压着力深打，致其品相精美无比，其工艺水准也是至今之伪所不能矣。像枚江南省造光绪元宝库平七钱二分现在市场上已十分罕见，且包浆自然古朴，品相完好，极具收藏价值！

 

光绪元宝是银币收藏的大类，历来都受到很多藏家的关注，不同版别的光绪元宝都有独特的韵味，值得藏家深品。特别以江南省造光绪元宝为例，钱币类的在线成交中，江南省造光绪元宝备受青睐，成为很多买家追逐的焦点。

英文翻译：Jiangnan Province made the 1898 Guangxu Ingot (1898) Kuping Seven Coins and Two Cents Silver Coin (Large English Pearl Dragon Long thorn), which is a mechanism silver coin issued by the government in the 24th year of Guangxu (1898). Jiangnan Province (Nanjing), It is one of China's important trading ports. During the Qing Dynasty, with the increasing development of foreign trade, the demand for silver coins increased year by year, and foreign silver dollars gradually occupied China's circulation market. When Guangdong and Hubei first started to mint silver dollars, Jiangsu Province had to allocate two silver dollars to Hubei Province every year to exchange for Hubei silver dollars for circulation. In the 22nd year of Guangxu (1896), Liu Shenyi, the governor of Liangjiang, played for the court and asked for a silver dollar. After approval, the Mint will be built in Nanjing. In the 23rd year of Guangxu (1897), the Guangxu Yuanbao silver coin of Jiangnan Province began to be minted. The silver dollar of Jiangnan Province was divided into a number of silver dollars for the stem and branch years. This product is handed down to the world and is beautiful. Guangxu Yuanbao was one of the currencies in circulation during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty. Zhang Zhidong, the governor of Hubei and Guangxi, took the lead in introducing British coin minting machines to mint silver and copper dollars, and the provinces followed suit.

Because of its unique scales with a flat dragon pattern on its back, like pearls inlaid, it is also called the "pearl dragon" version. The pictures and photos can be seen. Both the text and the decorations are very precise, the convex and concave, the text strokes and the decoration lines are round, which shows that the stamping of the mold is hard to hit, resulting in an extremely exquisite appearance, and the level of craftsmanship is still impossible. Carry on. It is very rare now on the market like a piece of Guangxu Yuanbao Kuping seven coins made in Jiangnan Province, and the patina is natural and simple, with good appearance and great collection value! Guangxu Yuanbao is a major category of silver coin collections, which has always attracted the attention of many collectors.
