光緒元寶是中國最早的機制幣，是中國近代機制幣中的十大名譽品之一，俗稱“龍洋”，因錢幣背面一般鑄有龍紋而得名。其具有重要的現實意義和歷史意義，且加上清末、民國戰亂連連等因素，一些較珍貴的光緒元寶銀元品種存世量已稀少，收藏價值高。許多收藏家對它趨之若鶩，爭相起價。北洋的銀元發展歷程映襯著中國晚清貨幣政策的進與退，每一次斷檔也刻錄著一次歷史的顛簸。了解造幣史和造幣廠的變遷過程，不僅可以理解銀元的歷史價值，同時也會對不同時期銀元的種類、成色、龍紋特征、齒邊特征等方面提高認知。光緒元寶堪稱是大清光緒年流通大面值貨幣之首，也是我國第一批引進國外技術來鑄造的錢幣，其歷史意義十分深厚！光緒元寶于1887年發行，1912年結束，只有短短的25年，但是它卻見證了華夏2000多年封建制度的終結。小小的錢幣，卻真實的反映了當時的社會、文化大環境。光緒元寶制作精美，觀賞性強，且品種多樣，容易入手，對于收藏者來說，這些足以成為他們所選擇的理由。古錢幣是不可再生之物，且存世量極為稀少，收藏價值無法估量。
