袁大头是民国时期主要流通货币之一，“袁大头”是对袁世凯像系列硬币的口语俗称，严谨点说叫“袁世凯像背嘉禾银币”。北洋政府为了整顿币制，划一银币，于民国三年（1914年）二月，颁布《国币条例》十三条，决定实行银本位制度。《国币条例》规定：“以库平纯银六钱四分八厘为价格之单位，定名为圆”，“一圆银币，总重七钱二分，银八九，铜一一”，“一圆银币用数无限制”，即以一圆银币为无限法偿的本位贷币。根据这一规定，于1914年12月及1915年2月， 先后由造币总厂及江南造币厂开铸一圆银币，币面镌刻袁世凯头像，俗称“袁头币”或“袁大头”。

苏维埃，意即“代表会议”或“委员会”，是指俄国无产阶级于1905年革命时期创造的领导群众进行革命斗争的组织形式，它起源于1905年俄国革命，是一种工人和农民的民主形式，其代表可以随时选举并随时更换，暗含着巴黎公社式的政权形式。十月革命以后，苏维埃成为俄国新型的政权的标志，城市和乡村的最基本生产单位都有苏维埃，苏维埃在共产党的领导下，不仅可以立法，还可以直接派生行政机构。

在中国的土地革命时期，中国共产党建立了苏维埃临时政府，但当时许多的农民并不明白这一词语的意思。根据中华苏维埃共和国副主席张国焘回忆说，广东的农民熟知著名共产党人苏兆征，因此就把苏维埃当成苏兆征的弟弟。而湘赣边区的农民则管苏维埃叫“埃政府”因为当地方言“埃”就是“我们的”意思。对于大多数农民理解的苏维埃，就是共产党的政府和"埃（我们的）政府"。这也是为什么在四面国民党军队的围剿和包围中，苏维埃政府依然能够立得住的原因之一，在当时来说，苏维埃的确是农民最喜欢的政府。

背面：嘉禾二本，左右交互，下系结带，中铸“壹圆”二字。这些年，在银元收藏界，有一个名字，始终不乏耳闻，那就是“袁大头”，特别是这几年，随着金银价格走强以及市场的火爆，许多老银元的市场价格都有了多倍的涨幅，其中部分版本特殊，品相良好，存世稀少的珍品，更是不可估量。

嘉禾”，美禾，茁壮之禾，硕大之禾，祥瑞之禾也。东汉许慎《说文》云：“禾，嘉谷也。以二月而种，八月始熟，得时之中，故谓之禾。”王充《论衡·讲瑞篇》云：“嘉禾生于禾中，与禾中异穗，谓之嘉禾。”古人多以“嘉禾”为祥瑞之物，与甘露醴泉并称。如班固《汉书·公孙弘传》云：“甘露降，风雨时，嘉禾兴。”也就是生长得特别茁壮的禾稻，古人视嘉禾图案为吉祥的象征。

During China's agrarian Revolution, when the Chinese Communist Party established the Provisional Soviet government, many peasants did not understand the meaning of the term. According to zhang Kuo-tao, vice chairman of the Soviet Republic of China, peasants in Guangdong were familiar with su Zhaozheng, a famous communist, so they regarded Soviet as Su zhaozheng's brother. The peasants in the hunan-Kiangsi border region called the Soviets "Egyptian government" because "Egyptian" in the local dialect meant "our". The Soviet, as most peasants understood it, was the Communist government and the "Egyptian (our) government". This was one of the reasons why the Soviet government, at that time the peasants' favorite government, was able to stand up in the face of encirclement and suppression by kuomintang troops.
