Question
I have a certificate for 2000 shs of Barkley Valley Mines Ltd. (NPL) Dated 09/05/1969. Transfer agent: Guaranty Trust Company of Canada, Vancouver BC - I tried to verify the address for transfer agent to write them but was unable to verify. 624 Howe Street, Vancouver BC Does this have any value? No cusip number on face of cert.

Answer
Unfortunately, from the information I have available, the certificates have no value. Barkley is out of business, and the company was struck from the Corporate Register in the 70's.

Guaranty Trust, the former transfer agent, is also long out of business. They imploded in 1992.
