A precious witness of the Liège coal basin, this bearer share of the Société Anonyme Charbonnage d'Angleur was issued in Liège following the deed passed on 24 November 1886 before Maître Jamar, notary in Liège, and published in the Moniteur belge. The company operated coal mines located at Angleur, an industrial suburb south of Liège — a stronghold of the Belgian industrial revolution. Document printed by Léon de Thier (Liège), with a dark green border with guilloché motifs and classic 19th-century typographic friezes. Mention "Bearer Share No. 542", share capital represented by 1,100 shares, the company's duration as long as the mining operating permits. Red "LIQUIDATION" stamp and "Reimbursed Two Hundred Francs on 10 March 1911" stamp attest to the piece's history. Original signatures of the Managing Director and Directors. Coupons attached on the right edge. Apparent condition: very good, aged but firm paper. A first-rate historical document for anyone collecting the Liège basin, Walloon coal mines, or 19th-century Belgian mining scripophily.
