AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This is a Russian four percent gold bond from 1890, specifically the second issuance.
Explanation
Type document.
The document is a bond, a debt instrument that grants the holder the right to periodic interest payments and repayment of the principal at the maturity date.
Publisher:
The Russian Imperial Government (РОССІЙСКОЕ ИМПЕРАТОРСКОЕ ПРАВИТЕЛЬСТВО) issued this bond.
Value
The nominal value is 125 gold roubles, which at the time corresponded to, among other things, 500 French francs, 404 German marks, 10 pounds sterling, and 230 Dutch guilders (as mentioned on the bond itself and confirmed by search result).
Goal
The proceeds from this bond issuance of ninety million rubles in gold were likely intended to finance railway projects, as suggested by the context of a similar 'Russian Railway bond.'
Features
It concerns a four percent bond, which means that the holder received 4% interest annually on the nominal value. The bond is 'bearer,' meaning that the owner is the person who physically possesses the document.

The above text was obtained via AI; the bonds come from my father's estate. Since I have no knowledge about them, I looked it up on the internet.
It concerns six bonds.
The paper is somewhat discolored, has a fold, and the edges show slight signs of use.
In several places, but especially in the top right corner, something is written in pencil.
Bond size: 31.5 x 42.5 cm.
