据史载,公元10世纪,四川发行了中国最早的纸币“交子”;直到19世纪末,中国才产生第一枚机制银币。相对先进的纸币,在中国竟先于贵金属铸币出现。对于这种有悖于世界货币发展史的现象,湖北大学楚史学者黄德馨前不久在他已出版的《楚爱金研究》一书中指出:春秋(公元前770年至公元前476年)晚期楚国出现的楚爱金,即为中国贵金属铸币的开端。此说否定了传统的“中国古代没有金铸市”的观点。 目前公认世界上最早铸造贵金属货币的,是约公元前7世纪的小亚细亚西部国家吕底亚。据此,楚爱金亦为世界上最古老的金币之一。
According to historical records, in the 10th century AD, Sichuan issued the first paper currency “Jiaozi” in China; it was not until the end of the 19th century that China produced its first mechanism of silver coins. Relatively advanced banknotes, in China actually before the precious metal coin appears. For such a phenomenon that runs counter to the history of world currency development, Huang Dexin, a historian of history at Hubei University, not long ago pointed out in his book “Studies on Chu Aijin” that in the late Spring and Autumn Period (from 770 BC to 476 BC) Chu Ai Jin Chu appeared, that is, the beginning of China’s precious metal coinage. This denied the traditional “Chinese ancient castings of gold” point of view. It is currently recognized that the earliest precious metal currency in the world is Lydia about the western Asia Minor in the 7th century BC. Accordingly, Chu Aijin is also one of the oldest gold coins in the world.
