100 CRISP VINTAGE OUT OF PRINT
U.S. STOCK CERTIFICATES
1940’s-1980’s
LOWEST PRICE! BEST VARIETY!
This listing is for 100 Different Steel Engraved US Stock Certificates.
That’s right, 100 different Capitalist Gems that represent the LIVING
HISTORY of the post WW2 Economic Boom that made America the richest,
most powerful nation on earth.
Paper stocks are no longer
being issued – these days all share transactions are processed
digitally. That means the very finite supply of surviving stocks from
the 20th Century is becoming rarer by the day. While coins, stamps and
currency were all issued in the millions if not billions, the average
stock issue was only in the 1000’s (very seldom over 100,000). Ever
stricter rules put in place by the SEC between the 80’s and 2000 led to
the complete destruction of the vast majority of issued stocks, making
the ones offered here even more special.
NO ISSUED CANCELLED STOCK DATED AFTER 1999 IS LEGALLY ALLOWED TO BE IN PRIVATE HANDS! IN FACT, EVERY SUCH STOCK WAS OR WILL BE DESTROYED AND CERTIFIED AS SUCH UNDER FEDERAL LAW
!!!
That means that vintage stocks issued before that have to increase in collector value over time. There are just too many people and too few stocks.
Every cert is
beautifully engraved via the intaglio method (using steel plates), most
by the American Bank Note Co. or its affiliates. The designs are etched
right into the paper, not merely printed on it, and many are art deco
masterpieces.

American Commerce BEFORE the digital age. We guarantee that the following names will be included:
