Collectors Value Old Bonds as Art and History
Herzog leads about 2000 U.S. collectors in studying old bonds and stocks, publishing Friends of Financial History five times yearly. Many certificates are artwork from America's era, with some autographs sought by autograph collectors. He valued a Standard Oil certificate signed by John D Rockefeller at $500. Counterfeiters now target so called worthless certificates as the business grows.

Engraving aided security certificates in early America
Historical notes explain how portraits and ornate patternwork on bonds and shares aided anti counterfeiting. Prices ranged from a few dollars to high value, with a Millard Fillmore signed Hudson and Berkshire Railroad certificate fetching 1700 dollars. The Smythe firm quotes prices on old inventories and urges sending a copy of certificates for investigation with a $20 check.
