至道是宋太宗的最后一个年号，这个年号宋太宗一共仅仅使用了三年，即从公元995年用到公元997年宋太宗驾崩。至道的愿意是最好的学说和政治制度，或者佛教、道教中所谓精妙绝伦的道理，这充分说明即将进入盛世的北宋王朝高层洋溢着理论自信和道路自信。这个时候出现了至道元宝这枚铜钱，是最好的纪念物。
Zhidao was the last name of Taizong, which lasted only three years, from 995 until his death in 997. It is the best theory and political system, or the so called exquisite truth in Buddhism and Taoism, which fully shows that the high level of the Northern Song Dynasty, which was about to enter the golden age, was brimming with confidence in theory and path. At this time, there appeared the gold ingot copper coin, which is the best memorial.
至道铜钱铸造了仅仅三年，但是量却特别大。铜钱这种收藏品真不能用时间来衡量，有些铜钱铸造十多年价格仍然高得吓人，比如雍正；有的仅仅三年，价格只有一块钱，不错，就是一块钱，一块钱你买不到吃亏，一块钱你买不到上当。至道元宝做工非常规整，大小几乎一致，直径几乎均为25毫米，钱文分为真书、行书、草书三种，都比较常见。这种钱材质为典型的青铜材质，经过上千年的氧化，不管是熟坑、生坑还是传世的，都容易产生黑褐色的黑色氧化层，非常古朴漂亮。
The copper coins were cast for only three years, but the quantity was very large. This collection of copper coins can't be measured by time. Some copper coins are still horribly expensive after more than 10 years of casting, such as Yongzheng; Some only three years, the price is only a dollar, yes, is a dollar, a dollar you can not buy a loss, a dollar you can not buy fooled. The work of the tao ingalt is very neat, the size is almost the same, the diameter is almost 25 millimeters, and the money is divided into three kinds: real, running and cursive, which are relatively common. This kind of money material is a typical bronze material. After thousands of years of oxidation, whether it is cooked pit, raw pit or handed down from generation to generation, it is easy to produce black brown black oxide layer. It is very simple and beautiful.
“御书三体钱”，开创了帝王书写钱币文字先河，进一步提高钱币信誉，繁荣钱币文化，造就了宋代浓厚的社会文化气氛，使钱币文化逐步丰富多彩。
"Royal books three body money", created the emperor to write the words of the coin, further improve the credibility of the coin, prosperity of the coin culture, created a strong social and cultural atmosphere in the Song Dynasty, so that the coin culture gradually rich and colorful.
上面这枚至道元宝“异品”钱，钱体规整，精致美观，当属官铸无疑。这枚钱币钱文篆笔书写，半真半隶，在真隶书体之间，足见书者文字功底精湛。钱文四字全部离郭接轮。“道”字：“辶”的三点水笔势由左及右向下捺；“首”字头部短，“目”部长且疏朗。“元”字：第一笔短，第二笔长无挑，整体字形宽扁。“宝”字：“宀”下“王尔”部拥挤不堪，其中“尔”部缶写如篆书，最下“贝”部疏朗。值得一提的是宝字“尔”部写法，自唐初至北宋凡是有宝字的古钱，除篆书外，无论是隶、真、行、草全部都是“尔”宝，唯独此钱“缶”写。这也正是此钱独特之处，当属异品。
The following to the tao ingot "different" money, money body regular, delicate and beautiful, should be an official casting. This coin is written in zhuan pen, half true and half li. Between the true official script, it shows that the writer's writing skills are exquisite. Qian Wen all left Guo to take the wheel.
