Hi All,
         Being an old fogey, and therefore prone to archaic practices,  I
purchased a real paper copy of "The Complete Patents of Nikola Tesla", Jim
Glenn ed., Barnes & Noble, Inc. 1994  ISBN 1-56619-266-8 . (SC ~536pp)
It turns out that Patent No. 11865 is a reissue Number for Patent No 655838
issued three months earlier. (June 5, 1900).
          While these ~111 patents span the period 1885-1927, in every one of
these he declares that he is a resident of  New York, NY, making it difficult
to determine which are "non-NY" patents. Since they are indexed both by date
and number, I can search further if needed.
