Thanks for your info Tom. I have seen a 2-3 of these over the years but I have never seen one dated in the 1800s. Most all I have seen have been dated 1914-1920. Also the other ones I have seen were on a thicker paper or cardboard type paper. The one I have is on some type of linen paper, much like paper currency. What kind of paper is your printed on? Also, it doesn't look like yours was stamped in the lower left circular box, is it. The stamp on any certificate, from the research I have done, is the best way to see if the certificate is original or not. The others I have seen all had a solid green circular box in the lower left with no stamp or markings. Thanks
