Today at Spink an historically important collection of Russian Treasury Bills issued by Barings to finance Russia’s war effort during World War I was sold for ?253,100. The lot was purchased by an anonymous collector based in Russia. The lot featured over 15,000 Russian Treasury Bills, sold as one lot with a pre-sale estimate of ?120,000-150,000. The group consisted of examples from some 67 issues made between 1914 and 1918 in denominations ranging from ?1,000 to ?500,000. This is the second, and final offering of such items, the first having been sold by Christie’s in 1991.
“This is a collection of material steeped in history and one which appeals to collectors and historians worldwide. The price realised today clearly reflects the current strength of this collectables market.” commented Mike Veissid, Director of Bonds and Share Certificates at Spink in London.
Barings’ connections with Russia date back well over two centuries with the first account of a Russian Client having been opened at Barings in 1775. Throughout the 19th century the relationship between Barings and the Russian government blossomed. However, the relationship grew significantly more important with the outbreak of war in 1914 when the Russian government borrowed, on an unprecedented scale, from the governments of Britain and France.
In Britain the funds were raised through the issue of Imperial Russian Government Sterling Treasury Bills discounted at the Bank of England. Treasury bills were frequently used by sovereign governments to address short term financing requirements and were tendered for at a discount as they did not bear interest. A large part of Barings’ role was to act as the Russian government’s adviser in negotiations with the British government. As a result of these transactions over ?400 million was raised and used for the purchase of munitions and other war materials.
