中国的收藏界风起云涌，很多藏品大幅升值，而其中升值最快的、升值幅度最大的品种之一便是钱币，而古钱币收藏大军也不断壮大。
古钱币极具观赏性与历史价值，因此古钱币如同其他古玩一样被藏家们所青睐。
中国最早的机制洋式为清代年间的“大清铜币，光绪元宝”，俗称“龙洋”，因钱币背面一般铸有龙纹而得名。
珍稀古钱币是货币历史的实物，由于早已不在流通领域，留存下来的亦少之极少，更是历史的见证。
China's collection industry is surging, and many collections have appreciated substantially. Among them, coins are one of the fastest and most widely appreciated varieties, and the army of collecting ancient coins is growing. Ancient coins are of great ornamental and historical value, so they are favored by collectors like other antiques. The earliest mechanism in China was the "Great Qing Copper coin" in the Qing Dynasty, commonly known as "Dragon Ocean", which was named after the dragon pattern on the back of the coin. Precious ancient coins are the physical objects of the history of money. As they are no longer in circulation, few of them remain, which is the testimony of history.
在清朝，铜币制造的初期清政府对铜币的图案都做了十分严肃的规定，所有的铜币上的图案必须采用龙的形象。这就导致了清朝的铜币上面拥有着各式各样形态各异的龙的形象。因此，在刚刚接触清朝铜币的收藏者们，可以根据铜币的铸造年限和铸造地点进行收藏。
In the early Qing Dynasty, the Qing government made very serious regulations on the patterns of copper coins. All the patterns on copper coins must adopt the image of dragons. This led to the appearance of dragons in various forms on the copper coins of the Qing Dynasty. Therefore, collectors who have just come into contact with the Qing Dynasty copper coins can collect them according to their casting years and locations.
