How do I find out if old stock shares are worth anything today? In 2004, my wife received 1300 shares of Metrobility Optical Systems, Inc. common stock. The company was acquired in 2006 by Telco Systems, a wholly-owned subsidiary of BATM Advanced Communications which trades on the LSE as BVC. Are these certificates now just toilet paper? Thanks.
Tough to tell after all these years. You need to get a hold of the investor relations department of the parent company, tell them what you have and see if they can get you an answer.
