Hartill 16.202 In the fourth year of the Xining era (1071 AD), the "Xining Zhongbao" coins were minted, with a denomination of ten coins. These coins were initially minted for use in the northwest border regions. However, they gradually reduced in weight, resulting in various editions of these coins. By the sixth year of the Xining era (1073 AD), the denomination was changed to 3 cash (折三) – ie, one equals 3 normal cash. Later, it was further changed to 2 cash (折二), and from then on, 2 cash coins were issued annually. During the Xining era, Wang Anshi implemented reforms known as the Xining Reform, with the goal of promoting production, enriching the country, strengthening the military, and rescuing the political crisis of the Song Dynasty. The Xining Reform was a large-scale social transformation that affected politics, economy, military, society, and culture. It was the most significant social reform movement in ancient Chinese history after the reforms of Shang Yang. The reform to some extent changed the situation of poverty and weakness in the Northern Song Dynasty, enriched the government's finances, improved the defense capabilities, and cracked down on illegal profiteering by feudal landlords and wealthy merchants. It effectively improved the military strength and to a certain degree changed the weak situation of the Northern Song Dynasty at that time. The Xining Yuanbao, as an important witness to the reform and transformation of the Song Dynasty, is recognized for its unique historical and artistic value. The New Policies, to some extent, increased the state treasury's revenue. However, during the implementation process, it imposed many additional burdens on the people and faced fierce opposition from the conservative Old Party. This led to conflicts between the New and Old Party factions. The New Policies were temporarily abolished but some of the positive measures were eventually retained until the fall of the Song Dynasty. 熙宁四年（公元1071年）铸“熙宁重宝”当十钱，这是为经略西北边陲所出，后来不断减重，以致于此钱版式较多。到熙宁六年时（公元1073年）改为折三使用，后又改为折二，从此每年发行折二钱。当时熙宁年间王安石以发展生产、富国强兵、挽救宋朝政治危机为目的，以“理财”、“整军”为中心，进行了变法，又称熙宁变法。变法涉及政治、经济、军事、社会、文化各个方面，是中国古代史上继商鞅变法之后又一次规模巨大的社会变革运动。变法一定程度上改变了北宋积贫积弱的局面，充实了政府财政，提高了国防力量，对封建地主阶级和大商人非法渔利也进行了打击和限制。在当时一定的程度上改变了北宋贫弱的局面的，有效的提高了军事力量。作为宋朝变法改革的重要见证的熙宁钱，其独特的历史价值和艺术价值也被大家所认可。新法在一定程度上增加了國庫的收入，但是在施行過程中對人民造成了很多額外負擔，並遭到保守派旧党的激烈反對，造成新舊黨爭。新法一度被廢除，但一些好的措施最終还是保留了下来，直至宋朝滅亡。新法在一定程度上增加了國庫的收入，但是在施行過程中對人民造成了很多額外負擔，並遭到保守派旧党的激烈反對，造成新舊黨爭。新法一度被廢除，但一些好的措施最終还是保留了下来，直至宋朝滅亡。
