A rare and interesting, ‘Home Rule for Ireland’ Bond Certificate, was sold recently at the Whyte’s Eclectic Collector Auction. The Certificate for $1.00, issued in the USA for the Anti-Coercion Campaign in Ireland, features a portrait of Charles Stuart Parnell. The Certificate has a serial number and is undated but would have been issued in the early 1880’s. Few examples are known.

The auction estimate of 1,000-1,500 euro was greatly exceeded with a final hammer price of 2,800 euro. This price is in line with a previous sale at Adam’s. So it is worth keeping a look out for this highly sought after item of historical interest

It's a nice engraving. You don't see too many of these around.

A rare Anti-Coercion Fund certificate for $2 issued by the Irish National League of America in 1888 appeared recently at Mullen’s Auctioneers. The attractively designed certificate featuring portraits of Parnell and O’Brien, achieved a hammer price of 1,200 euro.
