Are the certificates authentic?
Are the certificates authentic?
Yes, all of the certificates we sell are authentic stock and bond certificates unless otherwise mentioned in the description. At one point in time, this certificate represented a share of of the company, or a bond receipt. These certificates have been removed from circulation and digitalized, as seen by cancellation holes, stamps and writing on the certificate. We offer these certificates as a collectable item, not a security.
This is an orange unissued stock certificate from the Zions Investment Corporation, a financial institution that would later be part of today’s Zions Bancorporation (NASDAQ: ZION). Offered as a collectible.
Zions traces its origins to the 19th-century Utah Territory, when Brigham Young founded Zion’s Savings Bank and Trust Company in 1873. Over time, the institution evolved and grew, eventually forming Zions Bancorporation, a major regional banking company headquartered in Salt Lake City. Today, Zions operates as one of the largest bank holding companies in the American West, reflecting over a century of growth from its frontier roots.
The certificate is printed with bold orange engraved borders and features a vignette illustration of a Mormon pioneer family with a handcart, symbolizing Utah’s settlement and the bank’s heritage. As an unissued piece, it has no names or cancellation marks, retaining a crisp and clean condition.
An unissued orange stock certificate reflecting the Mormon pioneer legacy and early financial history of Utah, tied to a company that became a publicly traded bank holding company.
This is an unissued certificate, meaning it was never issued/ circulated. There are NO holes or writing present on the document. Very rare!
A perfect gift for a Utah resident, mormon, or finance history enthusiast!
The bank was founded by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) in 1873, although the church divested its interest in the bank in the early 60's.
On April 22, 1960, the LDS Church sold majority control of Zions First National Bank to Keystone Insurance and Investment Company

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.
