Are the certificates authentic?

Yes, all of the certificates we sell are authentic stock and bond certificates unless otherwise mentioned in the description.

This is an original, issued stock certificate from Burger King Holdings, Inc., dated September 2010, printed in multi color. Features a vignette of the iconic Burger King mascot, the bearded king, wearing the crown against a radiating sunburst background. Burger King blue and yellow circular logo with "Have it your way" Written across the bottom with illustrations of bacon, lettuce, ketchup, and other offered ingredients. Offered as a collectible.

The certificate is in excellent condition with high quality printing and vibrant colors. This piece represents ownership during a pivotal transition period in the company's corporate history, issued during the year of significant ownership changes.

In 2010, Miami was witnessing the end of an era in fast food corporate control. James McLamore and David Edgerton had founded Burger King in 1954 in Miami, Florida, building it around their flame-grilling innovation and the revolutionary Whopper sandwich introduced in 1957. The company's journey through various ownership structures. From Pillsbury Company control in the 1960s through TPG Capital, Bain Capital, and Goldman Sachs ownership culminated in this certificate's issuance year.

September 2010 marked the completion of 3G Capital's $4 billion acquisition, taking the company private and ending its four-year run as a publicly traded entity. This Brazilian investment firm, led by Jorge Paulo Lemann, would transform Burger King's operations and later merge it with Tim Hortons.

Fast food certificates from major brands remain highly sought after in scripophily, particularly from companies with iconic marketing and recognizable consumer brands. 

Materials and care

Here are some quick tips to preserve your certificate for decades to come. 

Paper quality: Stock certificates were printed on a variety of certificate paper dating back to the mid 1800s. Most of these vintage collectable certificates have signs of used & wear , cancellation holes, pencil / pen writing, stamps, staples, adhesives, slight rips, missing coupons and other features. 

Handling: Always handle the certificate with clean, dry hands or use cotton gloves to avoid transferring oils and dirt from your skin onto the paper.

Storage: Store the certificate in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can cause fading. Use acid-free folders or archival-quality plastic sleeves to protect it from moisture, dust, and physical damage.

Framing: If displaying the certificate, use a frame with UV-protective glass to prevent light damage. Ensure the certificate is mounted using acid-free materials to avoid any chemical reactions that could degrade the paper over time.
