These Rare Thrift Store Items Were Sold For Next To Nothing

Declaration of Independence

One Tenessee resident spotted this reproduction of the Declaration of Independence. Given its quality, the man purchased it for just over $2.

He decided to research his find and learned that he had bought something special. What he thought was merely a reproduction proved to be one of 200 copies commissioned by John Quincy Adams in 1820. The man sold it for nearly half a million dollars!
