The increase in the popularity of the underlying metals (gold, silver, copper, etc.) and the near record highs in the actual precious metals has led to rising prices in antique mining stock certificates which have always enjoyed a loyal following. While gold mining companies have usually commanded the highest prices, rare, companies incorporated in the Territories of Arizona, Utah, Nevada, etc. or unusual silver mining stocks and other scarce types of mining certificates are attracting premium prices as well. A stock certificate number under 1,000 is considered more valuable than a higher number as it usually is an indicator of a scarce small mining company that issued few shares or that it is a stock that was issued early in the company¿s history. Excellent-near mint condition. Printed by Brueker & Kessler Lith., Phila.   Payment and Shipping Info Buyer to pay shipping and handling of $2.95.     Place a Bid!
