Houston man discovers he owns real Declaration of Independence

The copy is believed to have once belonged to President James Madison, but it's true value was only recently uncovered.

He should see if there's a map on the back of it

I feel the declaration of independence should be placed in the whitehouse.

That’s awesome. Family legacy right there. Shame he sold it instead of donating it to a museum

[Beck-Stein]

Cool but why restore. Documents should always be in original form regardless of condition. Otherwise not 100% original.

Being related to James Madison is so legendary

[Zach-sguu]

Why would you give this to a stupid museum!?

[Firu_firulais]

Bro, what if this showed up on Pawn Stars?

I wish it would have stayed in Houston. 🫀
For Sam Houston. & For the love of Texas. A little off subject but if you're gonna give it away, Sam says he'd take it! He worked real hard to get Texas into the Union. But he was already seventy by the civil war and other Texans had other plans.. so he died from a wound he gathered in Shiloh-the place of peace... now the heirloom is Just another thing at the smithsonian. A buried treasure gets buried in a museum.
