Fotos are only for information. The Lung-Tsing-U-Hai Railway was China’s FIRST RAILROAD. The financing was remarkably international for the day. Issued in Brussels, the bond certificate is printed in both French and English, while the loan is denominated in British pounds sterling. Legal action is underway for the redemption of bonds like this. There are two large red Chinese “Chops” at the bottom, with 3 hand signatures and additional overprinting in black Chinese characters. The historic bond was issued by the Government of the Chinese Republic right after its formation. It is the 5% Gold Loan of 1913 for the Lung-Tsing-U-Hai Railway, payable in Gold or Pounds Sterling. The beautifully engraved design is nothing less than spectacular, with a very ornate blue border and multi-lingual titles. The bond is almost equally ornate on the back. The bond remains in near flawless condition with the coupon sheet still attached.
