"Our young, handsome hero is an international man of mystery, fresh off the boat from London with no introduction but a note for a thousand pounds sterling, a fortune worthy of Croesus and enough to break a trading house." — Karen Heller, The Washington Post, 1 Aug. 2017

Someone wrote that sentence in 2017? And, I'm not that impressed with Croesus if he thinks 1,000 pounds a fortune.

Only if he gives out 1000 pd notes like business cards.

THEN I’d be impressed! :-)
