古往今来，以祝寿为题材的瓷器与摆件数不胜数，钱币作为祝寿主题的币种却极为稀少。在钱币收藏界，有一种久负盛名的银币，以其制作异常精美、存世量稀少而被列为中国近代机制币十大珍，也被人们千百年来的寻找与挖掘，这便是广东省造双龙寿字币。此币铸于光绪三十一年(1905)初，为纪念慈禧七十寿辰而铸，且由于是限量发行，或未能正式流通，存世稀少，因此收藏价值较高。在我国近代银币中，属于非常独特的一种。

光绪元宝是中国最早的机制洋式银元，俗称“龙洋”，因银元背面一般铸有龙纹而得名。此广东省造光绪元宝双龙寿字币库平七钱二分，该银币正面珠圈外上端镌刻“广东省造”四字，下端镌刻楷书“库平七钱二”五字，左右两侧各镌有一蝙蝠图案，珠圈内铸有满汉文“光绪元宝”四字。银币背面珠圈外铸双龙戏珠图案，珠圈内铸一圆形“寿”字。银币设计极富特色，正面两侧所铸的一对蝙蝠图案寓意吉祥。因蝙蝠的“蝠”字与“福”字谐音，与背面的“寿”字相对应，寓意“福寿双全”。
