Another nice Coso Mining District Stock Certificate. Number 37 (early) for 100 shares to NG Hughes trustee. Signed by NG Hughes secretary and GH Willard president. This is the same secretary and president of the Defiance Mining Company. Incorporated on December 13, 1875. Located out of Darwin in the heat of Death Valley. Pat Reddy famed lawman and gunslinger) incorporated the Loretto Mining Company which he sold in January 1876. A few months prior to the incorporation, with the help of Inyo County Sheriff Elder, the Reddy brothers wrestled control of the main Darwin mines from Raphael Cuervo, their first proprietor ("Darwin, California" by Robert Palazzo). This is a very fine specimen for this mine. No vertical folds, pin holes, discoloring, dog ears rips, or tears. Of great importance to this certificate it was a lithograph of G. T. Brown: the San Francisco African-American lithographer. (Laguna Collection)

Date: 1876
