清代末期是一個銀幣、紙鈔、銅幣并行的年代，而至嘉慶年間才開始發行新式銀元，直至光緒年間金、銀幣才較為廣泛的鑄行。據悉，兩廣總督張之洞曾于光緒十三年委托使英大臣在英國訂購全套造幣機器，并在廣東錢局首鑄機制銀元和銅元。其后，各省紛紛仿效，購制國外機械鑄造銀、銅元，而光緒元寶就在這個時期應運而生。
In the late Qing Dynasty, there was a parallel era of silver, paper and copper coins. However, new silver coins were not issued until Jiaqing, and they were not widely cast until Guangxu. It is reported that Zhang Zhidong, governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, commissioned the British minister to order a complete set of minting machines in the UK in the 13th year of Guangxu, and first cast silver and copper coins in the Guangdong money Bureau. Since then, the provinces have followed suit, purchasing and manufacturing foreign mechanical casting silver and copper yuan, and Guangxu Yuanbao came into being in this period.

緒元寶全面進入發行階段以后，全國共有十九個省市的鑄造局同時進行鑄造，規模之大，歷代罕見。也足見當時光緒皇帝勵精圖治，想學習西方先進技術，重振大清王朝的決心。
After Xu Yuanbao entered the stage of distribution, there were 19 provincial and municipal casting bureaus casting at the same time. The scale of casting was very large, which was rare in previous dynasties. At that time, Emperor Guangxu made great efforts to learn advanced western technology and revive the Qing Dynasty.
因此，每一批的光緒元寶都極為精美，花紋雕刻十分有型，銀幣的直徑、邊緣高起、標準重量，甚至于上面的龍文飾圖案，每一樣都需要光緒皇帝親自進行審定。只是光緒皇帝生不逢時，清朝的權力始終被慈禧太后牢牢的掌握在自己的手中。正是因為光緒皇帝沒有實權，很多事情做不了主，才把全部的精力都放在了光緒元寶銀幣上。
Therefore, each batch of Guangxu Yuanbao is extremely exquisite, and the pattern carving is very stylish. The diameter, edge height, standard weight of silver coins, and even the dragon pattern on them all need to be examined and approved by Emperor Guangxu himself. Only when Emperor Guangxu was born ill, the power of Qing Dynasty was firmly controlled by Empress Cixi. It was because Emperor Guangxu had no real power, and many things could not be done, that he put all his energy on the silver coins.
