Emmagrube ‘Kuxschein’ (piece ‘3’) – 1914!!

Description

Emmagrube – uncommon private early notgeld issued by ‘Rybniker Steinkohlen-Gewerkschaft’, (The coal union of Rybnik) with a face value of 1m. The piece is made from a twelve of a mining share – ‘Kux-schein’! (The shares certificate was made up of 12 similar pieces and then cut into the individual notgeld pieces. Top left corner was piece ‘1’, top right corner was piece ‘3’, bottom left was piece ’10’ and the bottom right piece was piece ’12’. – please see the picture of the complete shares certificate for reference ONLY!! The notgeld piece itself has a relatively low serial number, (due to number of pieces actually made) and 2 signatures and an official stampmark. Piece is in ‘used but good’ condition – please see scans which show front and back of the piece. You are buying the piece ‘3’ here. A great addition for any notgeld collection! (I do have a few other pieces available, so you could try, over time, to build up the complete shares certificate (Kux-schein)
