在清代钱币收藏和研究中,许多方家认为同治通宝小平钱的收藏可谓乏善可陈,微不足道,甚至不屑一顾,但笔者却不敢苟同。因为从清代货币史研究角度考察,同治小平钱应该占有不可或缺的一席之地。同治时期,民间普遍使用白银,而且外国机制银元输入颇多,且成色和制度均有保证,使用比较 In the collection and research of the coinage in the Qing Dynasty, many Fangs considered that the collection of Tong Tomb Bao Xiaoping’s money can be described as meager, trivial or even dismissive, but I disagreed.
