Extended Information

This rare Nabisco Brands, Inc. specimen stock certificate was printed in 1985. This Nabisco Brands version is pretty rare given the company only used this name from 1981 until they merged with R.J. Reynolds Tobacco in 1985.

The famous cookie manufacturer, Nabisco traces it's roots back to 1792 and the Pearson & Son's bakery. The name Nabisco (National Biscuit Company) was first used in 1901 and in 1971 it became the corporate name. They merged with Standard Brands in 1981 to form Nabisco Brands, Inc. It later merged with R.J. Reynolds Tobacco to form RJR Nabisco.

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.
