This revolutionary document is one of only eight known surviving signed ratification copies of the United States Constitution, and the only known in private hands. The last and only other recorded sale of a similar document was in 1891.
Drafted in Philadelphia and signed by the delegates to the Constitutional Convention, the proposed Constitution was delivered on September 18, 1787 to the Confederation Congress that was then meeting in New York on the site that is now the Federal Hall National Memorial at 26 Wall Street. After heated debate, on September 28 Congress resolved to send it to the states for ratification. To that end, Charles Thomson, the Secretary of Congress, ordered 100 copies of the printed archetype, only a fraction of which he signed for sending to the legislatures of the 13 original states. It is that resolution, along with Thomson's signature, that makes the present copy an official ratification edition of the Constitution.
A billionaire lefty will purchase it and burn it on national television with him telling everyone..."This document is outdated and racist, thus this action will send a message to the government to rewrite it for today's purposes"
Anyone else besides me hoping to see the title βUnited States for Americaβ on it?
Sadly, no titleβ¦

I could see Musk outbidding everyone.
Think of the importance of this taking place now if it makes massive news.
Our nation has survived 237 years since the US Consitution was ratified.
We are hanging by a thread.
This one document is our nation's BIRTHRIGHT and MUST BE DEFENDED!!
Will Musk get in a bidding war with another billionaire over a handwritten copy of the DoI?
Is an original copy of the Declaration of Independence available as well?
Collect 'em all!
soros will buy it, so he can burn it.
