Dear colleagues & Prof Andrew:
Traditionally the leading expert in determining the value of old stock
certificates has been R. M. SMYTHE & CO. of New York. Supposedly
experts at Smythe can research the value (or lack of value) of such
financial documents, as well or better than any other firm can do it.
I've heard that they do charge a fee for their services. Here is Smythe's
web-site, which displays contact information:

Best wishes to all,
Steven P Hill,
University of Illinois (USA).
P.S. Evidently in the UK they use the term "share certificates"
analogously to the US term "stock certificates."

Dear SEELANGERS
I have received from an aunt some share certificates for 'Russo-Asiatic
Consolidated Limited' issued to my grandfather in Glasgow in 1941.
Does anyone know whether these would be of any value, either in terms of
their actual value, or as historical documents; or where I could find this
out?
Best

Of historical value, definitely, perhaps immense.
