Certificaet N° 200.

1000 guilder Dutch Certificate number 200 of 200 issued. 1791. This certificate represented a 1/200 interest in $ 130,000 face amount of the United States "Liquidated Debt" securities, most likely 6 percent state or United States final settlement certificates.
Dutch financiers and their American counterparts from 1785 to 1792 scrambled to buy up the deeply discounted 6 percent finals, then made additional representations (guaranteeing interest payments at a certain level for ten to fifteen years), marked the price up significantly, and then sold Certificate interests to the Dutch and Flemish public. These Dutch investment trust buyers first demonstrated the value and credibility of investing in United States securities.

Revolutionary War transatlantic paper was first designed to accommodate the growing relationship with the U.S. allies in Europe, primarily France, but to a lesser extent Holland and Spain. Most of the financial instruments created were bills of exchange. Still, a few special pay orders for returning prisoners of war or receipts for the consolidated American debt to France were used.
