袁大頭是民國時期主要流通貨幣之一，”袁大頭”是對袁世凱像系列硬幣的口語俗稱，嚴謹點說叫”袁世凱像背嘉禾銀幣”。北洋政府爲了整頓幣制，劃一銀幣，于民國三年(1914年)二月，頒布《國幣條例》十三條，決定實行銀本位制度。《國幣條例》規定:”以庫平純銀六錢四分八厘爲價格之單位，定名爲圓”，”一圓銀幣，總重七錢二分，銀八九，銅一一”，”一圓銀幣用數無限制”，即以一圓銀幣爲無限法償的本位貸幣。根據這一規定，于1914年12月及1915年2月， 先後由造幣總廠及江南造幣廠開鑄一圓銀幣，幣面镌刻袁世凱頭像，俗稱”袁頭幣”或”袁大頭” 。
Yuan Datou was one of the main circulating currencies in the period of the Republic of China. Yuan Datou was a colloquial term for Yuan Shikai’s serial coins. It was called “Yuan Shikai’s portrait carrying Jiahe silver coins”. In order to rectify the monetary system , the Beiyang government, in February of 1914, promulgated Article 13 of the National Monetary Regulations, and decided to implement the silver standard system. The National Monetary Ordinance stipulates that “the unit of price is 6.4 cents and 8 cents Sterling Silver in the Treasury level, and it is designated as a circle”, “a round silver coin, weighing 7.2 cents, silver 89, copper 11”, and “a dollar silver coin with unlimited usage”, ie a dollar silver coin is the standard currency for unlimited repayment. According to this regulation,in December 1914 and February 1915, a round silver coin was minted by the Mint General and Jiangnan Mint, and the coin was engraved with the head of Yuan Shikai, commonly known as “Yuan Tou coin” or “Yuan Datou”.
