[[File:Dà Qīng Tóng Bì (大清銅幣) - scanned image.png|thumb|right|A [[Milled coinage|machine-struck]] ''Dà Qīng tóngbì'' (大清銅幣) cash coin of 10 ''[[Chinese cash (currency unit)|wén]]''.]] The '''Da-Qing Tongbi''' ([[Traditional Chinese]]: 大清銅幣), or the ''Tai-Ching-Ti-Kuo copper coin'', refers to a series of [[copper]] machine-struck [[Qing dynasty coinage|coins from the Qing dynasty]] produced from 1906 ([[Guangxu Emperor|Guangxu]] 31) until the [[Xinhai Revolution|fall of the Qing dynasty]] in 1911. These coins were intended to replace the earlier [[Cast coinage|cast]] [[Cash (Chinese coin)|cash coins]] and provincial coinages, but were welcomed to mixed receptions. Two series of [[Tongyuan]] (銅元) were simultaneously in circulation, one carried the inscription [[Guangxu Yuanbao]] (光緒元寶), which was also used for [[silver]] coins, and the other with the inscription Da-Qing Tongbi. While the Guangxu Yuanbao were often provincially issued and at first were of different weights, the Da-Qing Tongbi was introduced by the imperial government in the hopes to create a unified national currency system. == Name == The name "Da-Qing Tongbi" (大清銅幣) can be translated as "Copper currency of the [[Qing dynasty|Great Qing]]" and was used to indicate that this series was supposed to be the standard coinage of the entire empire as opposed to provincial coinages.

''Tóngyuán'' ({{linktext|銅|元}}) or ''Tóngbǎn'' ({{linktext|銅|板}}) and they were struck in denominations of 1, 2, 5, 10, 20 and 30 ''[[Chinese cash (currency unit)|wén]]''. These struck coins were well received because of their higher quality compared to cast coins and their convenience in carriage, as well as their uniform weight and copper content compared to the less consistent alloys of cast Chinese coinage. As these coins were profitable to manufacture it did not take long before [[History of the administrative divisions of China before 1912#Provinces and Protectorates under the Qing Dynasty|other provinces]] started making machine-struck cash coins too, and soon 20 bureaus were opened across China.<ref>G.X. Series [http://www.gxseries.com/numis/china/china_province.htm "Chinese Provinces that issued machine struck coins, from 1900s to 1950s"]. Last updated: 10 June 2012. Retrieved: 29 June 2017.</ref> As these coins became more common they eventually replaced the old cast coins as the main medium of exchange for small purchases among the Chinese people. The first of these provincial machine-struck copper-alloy coins had the inscription [[Guangxu Yuanbao]] (光緒元寶) and a weight of 7.46 grams. These early Cantonese milled coinage were inspired by copper [[Coins of the Hong Kong dollar|coins from British Hong Kong]]. Due to the success of these Cantonese milled coins, the government of the province of [[Fujian]] started minting their own version of this coin in August of 1900. From the year 1901 the provinces of [[Jiangsu]], [[Hubei]], [[Anhui]], [[Zhejiang]], [[Liaoning|Fengtian]], [[Hunan]], Beiyang [[Zhili]], [[Sichuan]], [[Jiangxi]], [[Jilin]], [[Shandong]], [[Henan]], [[Guangxi]], and [[Yunnan]] had all begun to manufacture milled copper-alloy coins and distributed them nationwide. They became so became so popular that by the 31th year of the Guangxu Emperor (1906) they were being produced at 15 different bureaus in 12 provinces. The government of the Qing dynasty established a modern coin factory at the [[Ministry of Revenue (imperial China)|Ministry of Revenue]] Mint (formerly the "Tianjin Silver Money General Mint") in [[Tianjin]] in the year 1903, the mint began to produce milled copper-alloy coins in 1905.<ref name="ZhongjinNewsDaQingTongbi1">{{cite web|url= http://www.zhongjinnews.com/v-1-561317.aspx|title= 轩宇艺术:石先生出手一枚罕见户部造鄂字版大清铜币.|date=16 May 2019|accessdate=26 December 2019|author= 广州轩宇艺术 |publisher= 中经在线网 (Zhongjin News)|language=zh-cn}}</ref> At the same time, the government of the Qing dynasty ordered the entire country to produce the Da-Qing Tongbi coins to replace the former "Guangxu Yuanbao" and unified and standardised national currency system.<ref name="ZhongjinNewsDaQingTongbi2">{{cite web|url= http://www.zhongjinnews.com/v-1-670416.aspx|title= 广州博华文化传媒有限公司:张先生出手一组两枚价值不菲的户部造大清铜币.|date=19 December 2019|accessdate=26 December 2019|author= 博华文化传媒|publisher= 中经在线网 (Zhongjin News)|language=zh-cn}}</ref> The government of the Qing dynasty hoped to regain control of its currency system in order to also get more control over its own internal affairs.<ref name="ZhongjinNewsDaQingTongbi1"/> In the year 1906, the Ministry of Revenue had issued the "Regulations on the Rectification Law" (整頓圜法章程), and had merged 24 mints around China into only 9.<ref name="TheHuaBeiCurrencyRegulations">{{cite web|url= http://www.thehuabei.com/v-1-692513.aspx?WebShieldSessionVerify=xMK43bafHR1MX6WYfaqq|title= 广州博华文化传媒:刘先生出手一枚价值不菲的户部造大清铜币.|date=15 September 2019|accessdate=26 December 2019|author= 博华文化|publisher= The Hua Bei|language=zh-cn}}</ref> The Da-Qing Tongbi coins were initially issued in the denominations of 2 ''wén'', 5 ''wén'', 10 ''wén'', and 20 ''wén'' with each of these denominations being based on their nominal value in traditional cash coins.<ref name="PrimalQing">{{cite web|url= http://primaltrek.com/chinesecoins.html#qing_dynasty_coins|title= Chinese coins – 中國錢幣 - Qing (Ch'ing) Dynasty (1644-1911)|date=16 November 2016|accessdate=26 December 2019|work= Gary Ashkenazy / גארי אשכנזי (Primaltrek – a journey through Chinese culture)|language=en}}</ref> The government of the Qing dynasty had produced an excessive amount of 10 ''wén'' Da-Qing Tongbi coins.

Both Chinese and foreigners soon started producing struck cash coins of inferior quality often with traces of the Korean 5 [[Korean yang|fun]] coins they were overstruck on, or with characters and symbols not found on official government issued coins. [[Joseon]] began minting modern-style machine-struck copper-alloy coins in 1892, which was 8 years before the Qing dynasty did so in China. These coins were often minted by Korean businessmen and former Japanese [[Samurai]] (specifically ''[[Rōnin]]'') looking to make a profit on exchanging the low value copper coins into silver dollars as a single Chinese silver dollar had the [[purchasing power]] of 1000 Korean fun. The majority of the counterfeit coins bear the inscription that they were minted in either [[Zhejiang province]] or [[Shandong province]], but they circulated all over the coastal regions of China. Because the hand-operated presses used by the counterfeiters did not exert enough pressure on the coins to sufficiently obliterate the inscriptions and symbols on the Korean 5 fun coins, the counterfeit Qing dynasty 10 ''wén'' coins made using this method would usually exhibit a combination of both the Chinese Da-Qing Tongbi and Korean 5 fun designs. For example there can still be traces of a wreath surrounding the dragon or minor traces of the original [[Korean language|Korean]] inscription.<ref>{{cite web|url= http://primaltrek.com/blog/2012/04/30/chinese-10-cash-coins-overstruck-on-korean-5-fun-coins/|title= Chinese "10 Cash" Coins Overstruck on Korean "5 Fun" Coins.|date=30 April 2012|accessdate=3 July 2017|work= Gary Ashkenazy / גארי אשכנזי (Primaltrek – a journey through Chinese culture)|language=en}}</ref><ref>Ye Zhenming (叶真铭) for qianbi (钱币) [http://www.jibi.net/News/qbqbcx/8_15_49_530.html 揭秘"韩改版"铜元(叶真铭)。] Published: 发布日期:12-01-18 08:15:49 泉友社区 新闻来源:www.jibi.net 作者:叶真铭。 Retrieved: 3 July 2017.
