Description:
|
Debenture bond/ promissory note. An adorned printed line states the title: "a debenture bond for the sum of less than 100 piaster (girsh)", continued on the left side: "its value [is] 10 silver". To the right side of the title the date of the debenture is printed: 126 (= 184_) the last number of the year should have been added in hand-writing, but it's missing here it is, however, written in full in handwriting underneath the title: 1264 (= 1847 CE). Further information added in hand-writing: just beneath the title the equivalent of the sum in French (?) currency first in numerals: 62 ½ , and then in words. The signature of Al-Hajj Ibrahim Khalil appears at the end, next to a stamp.
