What You Should Know About Collecting Stocks And Bonds -Part One

Collecting stocks and bonds is not only a great hobby, it can be an interesting wholesale business as well. Whether your plan is to simply collect, become a small wholesaler, or a large-scale one like us, here are several things you should know...

History: Financial history is exciting and fun. Stocks and bonds were used in colonial times, early shipping, railroads, throughout the Industrial Revolution, into the automotive age, the Crash of 1929, and all through the past decades of economic growth. These documents are truly pieces of history and of great educational value.

Art: engraved printing of stocks and bonds by American Banknote, Franklin Lee Banknote, International Banknote, etc., are considered serious art. They are used to decorate dens, offices, boardrooms, and corporate headquarter buildings.

Treasure Hunting Appeal: Collecting stocks and bonds is still so new, one can say it is still in its infancy. As a result, there are fine bargains and little treasures to be found. Collecting stocks and bonds is a fresh, new vibrant hobby.

Bond Coupons

Coupons, ranging in number from a handful to many dozens for each bond, are attached to the bottom or sides of the bond. Often they are on one or more separate sheets.

When an interest payment is due on the bond, the bondholder simply clips the correct coupon and redeems it at a bank or at the issuing company offices. Normally the interest rate of the bond and the date of payment are on each coupon.

Other information such as the form of payment, such as gold coin, would also appear. Attractive, fresh, crisp coupons are a definite plus for bonds, especially if the bond was redeemed early and numerous coupons remain attached.
