摘要
国家财政主导宋金两朝的纸币流通。朝廷一方面将纸币设计为大额货币,使其优先承担财政功能;另一方面将铜钱等铸币作为小额货币用于日常交易,由此形成纸币和铸币分层流通的格局。受发行量扩大等因素影响,纸币逐渐将铸币挤出货币流通体系,导致民间日常交易因为缺乏小额货币难以完成。面对这一困境,地方官府、普通民众采取不同应对措施,最后由朝廷通过承认纸币贬值、设定两界纸币比价等方式,重塑了货币流通秩序。
The state was central to the circulation of paper currency during the Song and Jin Dynasties,issuing paper currency in large denominations and prioritizing its fiscal functions while relegating coins in small denominations such as copper coins to use in daily transactions and thereby stratifying their roles.Factors such as increasing issuance resulted in paper currency eventually pushing coins out of circulation and creating difficulties for regular people with daily transactions when coins in small denominations were unavailable.Local officials and regular people coped with this problem in different ways,the imperial court ultimately stepped in to reshape circulation order by acknowledging devaluation of paper currency and establishing formal exchange rates for the two currency issues.
