A RARE Eagle Mining Company stock certificate, measures 12-1/8 x 8 inches. Incorporated in Pennsylvania. Certifies John Pool is authorized seventy-five shares. Signed by James Mae Nichol as Treasurer and Morehead as president. Bald eagle vignette standing on a globe. Peach-colored print and border. Large blue company seal. Red twenty-five cent revenue stamp. Manuscript cancelled. Illegible signature next to it. Endorsed on the reverse by three different people. No 9. Very Fair condition, yellowing around the edges with small tears, stains and deep folds. There are two possibilities for this company. 1) The Eagle Mining Company might be the same Eagle Company described by Hollister (Mines of Colorado, 1867, p248-9) in the Union District near the town of Empire, not far from Georgetown, and now the gateway to Rocky Mountain National Park off I-70. They owned interest in several producing companies, inclusive of two mills. Their mines included: the Ben Franklin, Knapp, a third interest in the Pine Silver Mining Co. Their first year was marked with controversy, as the officers took home $35,000 in salaries on little or no production, and then got booted out by shareholders. 2) Possibly Churchill County. There was a Gray Eagle mine there at the same time that also had Philadelphia investors. Incorporated in Pennsylvania. No. 216, issued for 50 shares to John A Evers on May 20th, 1865. Signed by James Mae Nichol as treasurer and Turner G. Morehead as president. 25c revenue stamp on front and back. Bald eagle vignette standing on a globe. Peach-colored print and border. Large blue company seal. Red twenty-five cent revenue stamps on front and back. Stains, folds. Fading. Not to be confused with the Eagle Gold Mining Company of Colorado, also incorporated in 1865 in Pennsylvania.
