New Jersey, 1873. 2 Share Capital Stock I/U Certificate, Black printing with simple black border and vignette of young girl at top and small screaming eagle at middle bottom, S/N 1056, AU to Uncirculated condition, National BNC. The Bessemer Company of New Jersey likely produced steel using the Bessemer process, invented by Sir Henry Bessemer in the 1850s. It allowed for the mass production of steel by blowing air through molten iron to remove impurities. This method made steel production more efficient and economical, leading to the proliferation of steel usage in construction, railroads, and other industries.
