This very unique and rare certificate is a Dutch-issued certificate (Amsterdam), reflecting the period when U.S. railroads raised capital from European investors.
The Milwaukee Road was a major railroad connecting Chicago to the Pacific Northwest, and certificates like this represent the global financing behind early 20th-century American rail expansion.
This comes from my father’s collection of antique stocks and bonds. Since I am not a professional, please see photos and ask questions. It shows age related toning, foxing, edge wear/folds and some pinholes.
Ideal for collectors of:
Railroadiana
Scripophily (stock & bond certificates)
International finance / Dutch-issued securities
Early 20th-century transportation history
NOTE: I will combine shipping so please see other listings or follow as I continue to add. Thanks
