Five Gold Rush era stock certificates includes two Le Nouveau Monde stock certificates. Issued in Paris in 1850-51 for shares in working gold mines in California. Also included are an Ave Maria Gold Quartz Mine certificate, from Mariposa, Cal., for five shares, signed by committee members and secretary. Not dated or canceled. Clean. Very rare. According to the company's description detailed on the reverse, a London-based association held half the rights to the Ave Maria Gold Quartz Mine in the Mariposa District, California which would be worked under a lease with the owner of the other half. The Ave Maria was mentioned in a letter written from John Duncan to John Fremont on December 26, 1851. Two certificates from the Anglo-Californian Gold Mining Company are also included, both signed by two directors and a secretary, issued in 1852 and 1853. See photo for further details.
