Why would we commit the equivalent of financial suicide to do this? To enlist you as a collector and client for our many other and further foreign bond offerings which run into the thousands!! Our mission is to convince the coin, currency and stamp collecting fraternity that the beauty, rarity, history, size and sheer visual impact of 19th and early 20th Century foreign bonds represent absolutely the greatest value in collecting today!!! And this is the perfect place to start. The reasons being... 1) This is one of the oldest financial bonds in the world - dated 1854 (Barcelona Issued Date - bond date is 1847)!! It was authorized by Royal Decree at a time when Spain was still one of the top 2 Colonial powers in the world!! 2) It's a physical "monster"!! (9" x 14" times 4 - it has four panels!!) 3) It was issued in Barcelona by Spain's earliest conglomerate - La Espana Industrial Sociedad Anonima (anonymous society = corporation) Fabril y Mercantil (fabric manufacturing and marketing) at the inflection point of the Industrial Revolution. No doubt the foremost textile was cotton - grown in both Spain and its Colonies, more often than not with slave labor which was one of if not the most important of capitalism's underpinnings! 4) It is denominated in Reales (pieces of eight) the world's dominant currency at the time! 2000 Reales was a SUBSTANTIAL sum of money in 1847!!! 5) It is ornately engraved on sturdy vellum or vellum-like parchment paper which is resistant to fading and tears, with a full width vignette of an early factory building framed by intricate floral patterns. 6) It has 2 or more rare large Imperial Spanish Revenue stamps which may have the bust of Queen Isabella II who ruled from 1833-1868. Stamps may vary - order multiples to get best variety! 7) The bond has elaborate semi-annual interest payment notations from 1853 until 1957 (over 100 years!!!). These appear at the bottom, on the inner panels and on the back. 8) It has a fancy embossed corporate seal and 3 elegant fountain pen signatures and remains in excellent, clean and still crisp condition. If you can find anything that gives you more umpf for $20, we'd like to know about it. So grab it while you can. They're not making any more of them - haven't for over 165 years!!
