光绪元宝当二十是清朝光绪年间（1875-1908年）流通的一种重要货币，由户部造币厂铸造。这一时期，清政府面临严重的财政危机和货币制度混乱，为挽救经济颓势，清政府推行了一系列货币改革措施。光绪元宝的铸造正是在这一背景下展开的，它不仅反映了清朝末年货币制度的变革，也体现了政府试图通过货币手段解决经济问题的努力。

光绪元宝的铸造始于湖北两广总督张之洞引进英国铸币机器，随后各省纷纷仿效，共有十九个省局参与铸造。户部造币厂作为中央机构，其铸造的光绪元宝尤为精美，具有较高的历史和文化价值。

光绪元宝当二十的设计融合了中西文化元素，正面中央铸有“光绪元宝”四字，上方为满文“光绪元宝”，下方标明“当制钱二十文”，左右两侧分别刻有“户部”二字。背面中央为蟠龙图案，龙纹雕刻精细，线条流畅，展现出精湛的铸造工艺。龙纹周围还铸有英文“HU POO”和“20 CASH”，体现了西方文化的影响。

户部造光绪元宝当二十的铸造工艺极为精湛，字迹深刻镌秀，龙纹浮雕感强烈，镜面平整光滑，纹饰清晰，具有国外样币的风格。其包浆自然，色泽温润，历经百年风雨仍保存完好，展现出独特的历史韵味。

Guangxu Yuanbao Dang 20 was an important currency circulating during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty (1875-1908), minted by the Ministry of Revenue Mint. During this period, the Qing government faced a serious financial crisis and a chaotic monetary system. In order to salvage the economic downturn, the Qing government implemented a series of monetary reform measures. The casting of Guangxu Yuanbao was carried out in this context, reflecting not only the reform of the monetary system in the late Qing Dynasty, but also the government's efforts to solve economic problems through monetary means.

The casting of Guangxu Yuanbao began with the introduction of British coinage machines by Zhang Zhidong, the Governor General of Hubei and Guangxi provinces. Subsequently, various provinces followed suit, with a total of 19 provincial bureaus participating in the casting. As a central institution, the Ministry of Revenue Mint produces particularly exquisite Guangxu ingots with high historical and cultural value.

The design of "Guangxu Yuanbao" incorporates elements of Chinese and Western cultures, with the four characters "Guangxu Yuanbao" cast in the center of the front, "Guangxu Yuanbao" in Manchu script above, and "20 coins for making money" marked below. The two characters "Hubu" are engraved on the left and right sides respectively. The back center features a coiled dragon pattern, finely carved with smooth lines, showcasing exquisite casting craftsmanship. There are also English words "HU POO" and "20 CASH" cast around the dragon pattern, reflecting the influence of Western culture.

The casting process of the Guangxu Yuanbao made by the Ministry of Revenue is extremely exquisite, with profound and exquisite handwriting, strong dragon pattern relief, smooth mirror surface, clear patterns, and the style of foreign sample coins. Its patina is natural, the color is warm, and it has been well preserved after a hundred years of wind and rain, showcasing a unique historical charm.
