When we informed you that they go to auction of Apple's charter, were expected to sell for $100 to $150. In the end, however, the reality was completely different, the foundation contract was auctioned at Sotheby's auction house for ten times - 1,59 million dollars (about 31 million crowns).

The document was drawn up by Ronald Wayne in 1976, and on April 1, 1976, he signed it with Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak and founded the Apple company with them. In less than two weeks, however, Wayne leaves Apple and sells his ten percent stake in the company for a total of $2300. If he had known then that today his part would be worth 36 billion dollars, he probably would have changed his mind.

In New York, not only the charter from April 1, 1976, which has the signatures of all three actors, but also the legal document describing Wayne's subsequent departure from the company were auctioned. Wayne sold all these documents in 1994 for a few thousand dollars to a certain private collector Wade Saadi.

Now the price of Apple's charter has risen to 31 million crowns.
