# 192 for 20 shares to J Moore trustee. Signed by secretary J Moore and president Richard Hornpay(?). Datelined San Francisco 1876. Incorporated April 23, 1875.Not cancelled. AL Bancroft printer. Location at Spanish Belt Mining District, Nye County, Nevada. Six assessment stamps on reverse. Red color(?) in center of stock. Corners have very small dog ears. Very nice condition. The Barcelona was a producer from 1875 to 1889. The South Barcelona must have been a little too far south as it is not shown as a producer in "Nevada Metal & Mineral Production" by Couch and Carpenter. However, Moore was also the secretary of the Barcelona, so they were probably under the same umbrella company. The Barcelona District (as in our cert.) is situated 7 miles from Belmont, between Belmont and Manhattan, the district is located on the southeastern side of Shoshone Mountain and includes the area at the head of Silver Creek, all of Antone Canyon, and extends east to include the Corcoran Canyon area. Originally named the Spanish Belt district when it was organized in 1875 and separated from the Philadelphia district which included both the present Belmont and Barcelona districts.
