Historic stock certificates are one of the favorite antiques of the 21st century! More and more collectors - among them the "Who is Who" of the international financial scene - as well as investors have discovered antique shares and bonds. In some categories the values are climbing steadily. Investors collect according to many different criteria: to industries, to regions, but also according to their own motives or even artistic styles of the certificates. The sky is the limit when it comes to their creativity.

Early certificates were known for their very elaborate design: The more elaborate, the more the investors were convinced of a certain future profit. However; bankruptcies were quite common among the companies producing these certificates. What remains to this present day are highly decorative works of art. Additionally, these historic investments often tell dramatic stories of pioneers like Thomas Alva Edison, John D. Rockefeller, J. P. Morgan or Werner von Siemens. Even the ups and downs of the stock market are being documented by these antique stock certificates - they are the written proof of the bull and bear market. |
