Extended Information

This Eaton Corp Specimen Stock Certificate was printed in 2003. The Eaton Corporation (NYSE: ETN) is a leading provider of electrical components and systems. Eaton Corp. dates it’s history all the way back to 1911. Eaton Corporation started in 1911 as the Torbensen Gear and Axle Co. After numerous acquisitions and name changes, in 1963 the current company’s name was adopted. Eaton is traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE).

Specimen stock certificates are certificates that were archived by printers and the company as perfect examples of the company’s stock issue. Specimen’s can be identified by their “specimen” stamp, stamped holes spelling “specimen”, or they are often issued with a serial number of a series of zeros. Often, they are also issued with no serial number at all. Specimens can also represent a design that was never issued. All of these attributes make the specimen stock certificate rarer than the issued version of the share. Many enthusiasts collect specimens as a whole new category of Scripophily.
