粮票作为一种实际的有价证券，在中国使用达40多年，随着社会的发展，它已退出了历史舞台，成为收藏者的新宠。粮票自身是没有价值的票证，但凭粮票可买到国家牌价粮食，实际上粮票成了一种有价证券。粮票的面值等于国家牌价粮价与市场价之差。目前中国已取消使用粮票，粮票很快进入了收藏品的行列，全国集 “粮”爱好者也在不断扩大。近两年在香港、澳门特区和欧美一些国家高价购买竞相收藏中国粮票中的珍品。随着时间推移，集粮热的升温，粮票收藏品市场也上扬。投资收藏粮票前景十分可观。粮票曾作为中国的第二“货币”，在中国历时40年，它反映了中国各个历史时期的社会经济状况，有较为重要的研究价值和收藏价值。
The food ticket is a kind of food purchase voucher issued by China in a specific economic period from 1950s to 1990s. The national food ticket refers to the national general food ticket. No matter where you go, you can use this food ticket to buy food supplies, including edible oil (only the national food ticket can buy Edible oil in other places). If you want to travel or visit relatives, you must exchange local food stamps for a certain number of national food stamps to go out. Grain is an important material related to the national economy and the people's livelihood. When a country carries out large-scale economic construction, it must carry out macro-control and unified adjustment of grain. As a specific cultural product in a special period, food stamps carry the memories of many old people. Now food stamps have become history and antiques in that special period. The earliest national food stamps in New China was born in 1955. At that time, food stamps seemed to become China's "second currency" and had been used for more than 40 years. Food stamps have a wide range of themes, fine printing, and have the characteristics of timeliness and regionality. Years of erosion have made this kind of non reproducible ticket cultural relics increasingly rare and rare, which has long attracted the attention of collection lovers at home and abroad.
This group of food stamps is the 1966 version of the national general food stamps. In the upper left corner is the "Ministry of grain of the people's Republic of China", under a few words is the "national general food stamps", and on the right side is the currency value "wushijin". The coupon pattern is mainly farmland and water conservancy, reflecting the policy of taking agriculture as the foundation, industry as the leading and both industry and agriculture as the weight of China's national economy. On the back is the instructions for the use of food stamps. In the printing process, the ticket not only has fine patterns and lines, but also has reasonable ink color matching, novel and bright colors, beautiful and generous patterns. At the same time, it is printed on banknote paper with wear-resistant, moisture-resistant and smooth. We can clearly see that each food ticket is excellent in appearance and well preserved.
As a practical securities, food stamps have been used in China for more than 40 years. With the development of society, it has withdrawn from the historical stage and become a new favorite of collectors. The food ticket itself is a worthless ticket, but with the food ticket, you can buy food at the national price. In fact, the food ticket has become a kind of negotiable securities. The face value of the grain coupon is equal to the difference between the national grain price and the market price. At present, China has cancelled the use of food stamps, which soon entered the ranks of collectibles, and the collection of "food" lovers across the country is also expanding. In the past two years, they have bought at high prices in Hong Kong, Macao SAR and some European and American countries, competing to collect the treasures of China's food stamps. With the passage of time, the grain collection heat is heating up, and the grain ticket collection market is also rising. The prospect of investing in collecting food stamps is very considerable. As China's second "currency", food stamps have been in China for 40 years. They reflect the socio-economic situation in various historical periods of China and have more important research value and collection value.
