CHINA--EMPIRE. Lot of (33). 1910 5% Imperial Chinese Government Tientsin-Pukow Railway Supplementary Loan. Bond for 100 Pounds. K-200. Very Fine. Issued by Chinese Central Railways Limited. According to Kuhlmann, only 8880 bonds remain outstanding. The first loan, issued in 1908, was insufficient to complete the Tianjin-Pukou Railway; therefore, the company issued another loan of 4.8 million pounds sterling in 1910 to cover the cost overruns. Estimate: $1,200 - $1,800. Provenance: From the Yang Ai Hao Collection. 1910年大清政府津浦鐵路5%續借款債券100鎊。33張。 中華鐵路有限公司發行。據庫爾曼記載，僅存世8,880張債券。1908年發行之首期借款不足以完成津浦鐵路；因此該公司於1910年另行發行480萬英鎊借款，以彌補超支成本。

Estimate:$600
