Cert. #4628, issued in 1883 for 1000 shares. Mines located at Lake Valley, New Mexico. Due to the company's low grade ore and problems with their milling process, the company was in crisis by 1886. The company was merging with the Sierra Bella Mining Company and funds were tight. In debt, with the mill operating at a loss, the company was appealing to noteholders to essentially roll over their debt of about $20,000, and for current shareholders to pony up more money. It wasn't looking good for the company (E.M.J. 42, 1886). The certificate is in EF condition. Uncancelled. Kendall Bank Note Co., New York. City: Lake Valley State: New Mexico Date: HWAC# 51272
