Great Basin Mining Co

Great Basin Mining Co 1864 - Nevada Territory - $1850 - the FOLLOWING is a description of a similar stock in a December 2012 Holabird Kagin catalog ---- June 2, 1864 - Extremely rare and spectacular uncancelled certificate, issued to one J.D Hunt, for 50 shares of capitol stock. Serial No. 437, signed by George A. Hill, secretary and Jno. Williams, president. The Great Basin Company was in the Sierra District of Humboldt county, of the Nevada Territory. Humboldt county is the oldest in Nevada. The claims of the Great Basin were among the first recorded in Humboldt Co. The famous Lithographers Britton & Rey of San Francisco produced the certificate. There is an unusual vertical shaft on the left side, which reads "Ledges" (aka veins) on the vertical, with a wrap-around spiral banner that indicates 6 named mines owned by Great Basin, such as the "Frost", "Occidental", "Auld Lang Syne", and others, near Dun Glen. The main vignette on the right shows a butte overlook into a valley, with 2 frontiersmen and their horses on the left, and a native Indian on the right looking down. Silver was discovered in the Humboldt right after the Comstock, but was far more remote and difficult to get to Dun Glen, the central mining camp of the Sierra District, and the town of Unionville. Travel required risking life and limb, both from lack of food and water, to conflicts with Indians. This is the first time "Great Basin" was seen, a term coined by John C. Fremont when he explored the area in the 1840`s. The condition is excellent, with only a tiny tear along the top edge. FH considers this to be one of the top examples ever available.
