Rare Gold assay certs from 1880's, Ephemera treasures never offered on ebay For Sale

A very rare and valuable piece of family history, my great great grandfathers assay certificates from the Chicago Smelting Co., 1883, 1884, 1885. The parchment paper is still crisp and these have been stored away in a drawer for a century waiting to find the way into a museum or your private collection of prospecting memorabilia.I have looked all over the net and have found no other assay tickets from this era in this condition or with the extensive graphics these have. They would be something you would want to properly frame and display.I am foolishly starting these pieces of precious ephemera at a low price just to get them into proper hands, so be the lucky first one to snag these certificates.
