This authentic financial document is distinguished by its ornamental green frame, typical of early 20th-century stock certificates, and by the presence of an engraved sailing ship at the bottom of the page, symbolizing the company's maritime activities. The print uses green and red inks, with visible stamps and handwritten notes, including the signature of two directors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe share bears the inscription \"Action de 100 Fr. au Porteur\" (Bearer Share of 100 Fr.) and clearly displays the company name, the amount of the share capital, and the address of the headquarters in Paris. The lot also includes a sheet of numbered coupons, printed in red and green ink, with the CGOM logo in a medallion, all integral to the main document.

The colors have remained vibrant, with a slight patina due to age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe document is presented open on a wooden surface, allowing both the main part of the share and the series of original coupons to be observed.

They allowed their holder to exercise associated rights without nominative mention, which favored the circulation of securities and simplified transfers on the stock market. The Compagnie Générale d'Outre-Mer was a public limited company active in maritime and colonial trade during the interwar period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAFW Reassurance\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCareful packaging and fast shipping are guaranteed by a professional seller.
