European Jewish financier (1777-1836) who founded his family’s famous banking dynasty and handled Allied loans for the campaign against Napoleon. Rothschild helped to ensure Britain’s preeminence as a financial market when bonds he handled as an investment banker were denominated in sterling and the interest made payable to London in pounds. Among the powers availing themselves of the new arrangements was Czarist Russia, which floated a loan for £3,500,000 in 1822. Partly-printed DS, signed “N. M. Rothschild,” one page both sides, 9 x 13.75, March 1, 1822. A Russian imperial bond for 720 rubles with 5% annuity. Signed in the upper right margin in ink by Rothschild. Impressively cloth-matted and framed with a portrait and plaque to an overall size of 26.5 x 23.25, with a window in the backing for viewing the reverse. In very good to fine condition, with light soiling, wear, and some splitting along the folds.
