Palestine - Two Share Certificates of the Anglo-Palestine Company Ltd. - 1908/1909 - Second Series with Capital Increase - A rare and historically important pair of share warrants issued by the Anglo-Palestine Company Ltd., representing the company’s second series of share issues in the early 20th century.

Both examples retain their original red wax seals, British revenue stamps, and attached coupons. An exceptional historical pair illustrating the early growth of what would become Bank Leumi le-Israel, the cornerstone of Jewish banking in Palestine.
