This issue found a ready market, and the bonds were purchased by American investors at 10iy2 and interest, at which price the income yield was about 5.75. Subsequently the bulk of the issue was repurchased by Norwegian and other Scandinavian investors at prices which ran as high as 110, such purchase being stimu lated by the fact that during the war the currencies of the Scandinavian countries stood at a heavy premium over the U. S. dollar. That- is, one unit of Scandinavian cur rency would purchase more than the customary amount of American currency. At the present time the Scan dinavian currencies are at a heavy discount from the U. S. dollar. The foreign holder can, therefore, now afford to sell at a lower price as measured in dollars, and as a result we have been,able to purchase and offer on the following investment basis $1,500,000 of this issue of Kingdom of Norway Six Per Cent. Gold Bonds Due February 1, 1923 Price 96 and Interest, to Yield about Vi Interest payable February 1st and August 1st. Principal and interest payable at The National City Bank of New York in United States gold coin, without deduction for any taxes or impositions levied by or within the Kingdom of Norway against the Bond or the income arising therefrom, or the holder thereof, and whether the holders of the bond, or its coupons, be a citizen of a friendly or hostile state.
