Have you ever sold any? I was given a handful of them to sell. They are have "specimen" written on them. Is there a better place than ebay? How about ebay live for this? They are all from Ef Hutton. Any thoughts on this are greatly appreciated.

No experience, but I'll be watching to see what you hear from others.

Scripophily is the area of collecting which covers old stocks, etc. I searched "The Standard Catalog of Stocks & Bonds" and found nothing for E.F. Hutton.

I suggest you search scripophily.com, they have a lot of Hutton material listed, which might further help you.

What a great site! thanks! It has some hutton stuff I bookmarked it. Great resource but it doesn't have listed what I have. Mine are a tad older.

I'm hoping to hear something from someone more experienced as well.

I think I remember there's something about selling stock certificates that is restrictive -- might have read this in the Scripophily web site about their start. It could have been something about his start on eBay and then he moved to having his own site because they were either pulling his auctions or put further restrictions on his listings....

See if there's something that includes some specific wording that must be included - and must be sold in such a way that there's no misunderstanding about what you're selling. I think it was something that indicated they were for display or artistic value and not ownership of the company represented.

Anxiously looking forward to what others have to say.

There's one on ebay (from 1954) for $11.95 BIN.
