More Fitting News From England

July 04th, 2009

Here is the perfect 4th of July(Independence Day) news.  An original copy of the Delaration of Independence was found in the National Archives in Kew, England.  The Dunlap copy named after the printer who commisioned it, was only printed in 200 copies and this is the 26th found.  This might be of interest for any treasure hunter as the last one sold for $8.14 Million in 2000.
