<p>[QUOTE="gsalexan, post: 1511610, member: 24274"]I picked up a nice railroad stock the other day, so I thought I'd give this thread a bump. This one is from the Ohio Central Railroad Company, printed circa 1860 with an imprint of Toppan, Carpenter & Co -- which is interesting because in 1858 TCC was part of the consolidation that formed American Bank Note. Love the steel engraved vignettes on this, very reminiscent of early obsolete banknotes. </p><p><br /></p><p>I also liked the price. Because the market demand for unissued certificates is less, I was able to pick this one up on eBay for $11! Since I collect the engraved art, I'm not so concerned about whether a stock has been issued -- this one will look great with the rest of my railroad certifs.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
