First, the crown number value:
With the improvement of people's living standards and the constant pursuit of materials, the theme of paper money collection is also deepening. Difficult and challenging collection themes are gradually favored by powerful collectors. The crown collection of paper money is the inevitable trend of the development of paper money collection, and its status is gradually recognized by the public. Title collection is more difficult and interesting than other collection topics. Because the number and distribution of crown numbers are scattered, each crown number is distributed in different areas, which is difficult to improve. Collecting and studying the crown number is a project that consumes great energy and brain power, and it is a milestone leap in the collection of banknotes. In order to save the early paper currency issuance data (crown number issuance data) after the founding of the People's Republic of China; Many paper money collectors have also joined the ranks and spent a lot of energy to collect the paper money printed with Roman crown (that is, the first 123 version of RMB). Because the fourth edition began to use pinyin letters, the first three editions of banknotes were issued earlier, and the awareness of national collection was generally not deep during the issuance period. In addition, the printing of Roman crown makes its historical research value more important.
Second, the value of the crown collection is reflected in:
RMB brands have regional distribution. China is a country with a large population, a vast territory and a large land area, so when coins are put into use, only 100 million pieces are printed in a crown, and then 100 million pieces of paper money in one or two provinces will be completely digested. Therefore, every delivery area with low denomination and crown number is in two or three provinces, and it is difficult for collectors in non-delivery areas to collect regional delivery numbers. Unlike stamps, crown collection is not a commodity that is pushed to the collection market. No formal naming notice was issued. Collectors must always pay attention to the banknotes in circulation in order to find the collection they need. The fun of finding a collection in this way can only be reflected by insiders. We should seek to put the crown figures in different places and realize our collection pursuit through this circle.
In addition to Chinese characters, minority languages, Chinese Pinyin and Braille, the fourth set of RMB main currency also includes crown numbers and numbers used to control the printing quantity and anti-counterfeiting function of various tickets. Crown, which means first, is also called "prefix", that is, a symbol printed in front of the ticket number to indicate the batch number and printing quantity of various tickets.
