五帝钱正面钱币外圆内方，地章遍布乳钉纹，形似玉璧，古人认为天是圆的地是方的，所以用上好的玉制作成玉璧用来祭天，后期发展成流通货币，可以用玉璧来购买物品，古钱币也正是由此而来，最早的古币是外圆内圆与玉璧无异，后期由于打磨容易发生转动，为了更高效的制作钱币，就发展出外圆内方的钱币，也方便固定，大大提高了制作效率，古钱币就由此而来，所以古钱币不只是一种流通货币，更是一种可以用来辟邪去恶的法器，道教就有用乾隆通宝制作的金钱剑，用来做法驱邪，圆为乾方为坤，乾坤之间四字直读，表面部分产生包浆，古韵十足，开门见老师不可多得的收藏级钱币。
钱外圆内方，外圆代表天，内方代表地，中间的皇帝年号代表人，“天、地、人”三才具备，因而具有扭转乾坤的能量;正面天地乾坤之间四字直读，从顺治到嘉庆，背面满文造币局，五枚钱币字迹清晰，品相完美，实属难得。
这五枚钱币包浆自然，枚枚都是评级币，底光柔和，所谓包浆是自然形成的氧化层，也有人为手盘包浆，两者不同，但同时都有保护钱币的功能，有如给钱币镀上一层保护膜，使钱币不再氧化，便于收藏传世，如果觉得钱币脏，可以用清水洗，再用棉布擦干，不要破坏包浆，破坏了包浆就相当于破坏了保护层，更重要的是包浆是鉴定新老钱币最简单有效的方法。
细看这五枚钱币品相完美，没有磕缺，损毁，变形等是不可多得的收藏级铜币，建议收藏，传世。
