Full Stock

A stock with a par value of $100 per share. This can be either a preferred or common share.

Investopedia Commentary

Stocks are generally issued with a zero par value - as they are traded in the market. The par value is not zero only when the stock is purchased directly from the company, in which case the par value is determined by the company through simple accounting measures.
