GregAlex Pillar of the Community United States 822 Posts	Posted 02/06/2023 5:10 pm I finally found an affordable example of a stock I've been chasing for a while -- the Stroudsburg (PA) Bank. This has so much beautiful engraving, it's quite a showpiece. It occurs to me that a lot of national bank notes and obsolete currency have counterpart stocks and bonds. I can post some of my other bank stocks and maybe there are forum members who can post currency issued by these banks. Report this Post to the Staff

GregAlex Pillar of the Community United States 822 Posts	Posted 04/11/2024 9:54 pm I picked up a wonderful stock certificate recently that features an astounding eight vignettes! Between this one and the Stroudsburg Bank, it's tough to pick a favorite. Report this Post to the Staff

GregAlex Pillar of the Community United States 822 Posts	Posted 04/09/2025 5:16 pm Trust companies are also part of the banking industry. I'm not sure how they differ from banks -- if anyone can enlighten me, I'd like to know. Report this Post to the Staff

GregAlex Pillar of the Community United States 822 Posts	Posted 05/07/2025 8:22 pm I picked up several Maine bank stock some time ago, but forgot to post them. This first one was interesting because I was able to find a National Bank Note that matched both the bank title and the signatures! The currency is not mine, just shown here for comparison.

GregAlex Pillar of the Community United States 822 Posts	Posted 04/10/2026 6:06 pm Here's another national bank stock I recently picked up. In theory, the signatures might match those on a national bank note from this charter, but I haven't done any digging. Report this Post to the Staff
