"Operating Tunnel Under Gold Hill, Boulder County, Colorado" (printed on left margin). Inc. in Colorado. No. 211, issued to Earl Coe for 25 shares on May 18th, 1898, in Boulder, Colorado. Signed by president W.H. Nicholson and secretary William Coe. Not cancelled. Black border and print, gold seal, and floral vignettes. Folds, pinholes, creases, some toning. 8.75 x 11" From newspaper articles, it appears the company had numerous accidents. In December 1899, a fire broke out in the tunnel house at Sunshine and spread to the office where it detonated 200 pounds of explosive powder. No one was injured because the miners were home for Christmas. In April 1900, 150 pounds of giant powder exploded, killing a father and son at the company's shaft house near Sunshine.
