Extended Information

This rare Swisher International Group specimen stock certificate from the famous cigar maker was printed in 1997 by the American Bank Note Company. Swisher was founded by David Swisher in 1861 in Newark, Ohio and now sells over 2 billion cigars per year worldwide. Swisher started out hand rolling their cigars and selling them from the back of wagons.

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.
