Description: This Bond had a CALL provision to start in January 1917 for a partial redemption by annual drawings of principal. Likewise, after 1917, the Imperial Government had the right to call for Full Redemption of the Loan. In any case, all bonds of this loan had to be redeemed not later than 1985. (80 year paper!) Interesting fact: the coupon payment dates are all issued with 2 dates. For example: 19 of Dec. 1914/1 January 1915. This is explained by the fact that Russian at that time was still following the Julian Calendar whereas Europe had already adopted the Gregorian Calendar created in 1582 by Pope Gregory X111. It was only after the Bolshevik Revolution , on February 14, 1918, that the Gregorian Calendar was implemented in Russia by Vladimir Lenin’s decree.. The Bond Certificate is in Very Fine Condition and is suitable for framing as a gift or for office for collectors who are interested in Russian Imperial History. The double coupon dates are unique historical facts that add to the value of this certificate.
