284 Russian Government Treasury Bill - Issued and Uncancelled -
Still Negotiable?
30-April 1917. P-Unlisted. 500,000 Pounds
Specimen Treasury Bill from the Russian Government to either
another government or entity. Extremely rare issued. “Serial No.5”.
Red English imprinted revenue on upper right for 250 Pounds. Text
states “On 29th, April 1918 (without days of grace) the Russian
Government promises to pay to______or order against surrender of
this Treasury Bill the sum of Five Hundred Thousand Pounds for
value received....London, 30th April 1917, By Delegation of the
Ambassador Of Russia In London. Payable at Mess.rs Baring
Brothers & Co. Limited, London”. Ornate counterfoil engraving on
left with BW&C. imprint. I am not certain if this Treasury Bill repre-
sents a loan to the Provisional Russian Government of 1917 or to the
Soviet “Lenin Government” that was its successor. This could be
considered a short term “Government Bond” that was negotiable.
