The SCOTUS having lost it’s copy of the Declaration of Independence is par for the course. I suspect they lost their copy of the Constitution at the same time - at least it would explain a lot of things.

That was a lesson learned the hard way at the Supreme Court, where a 185-year-old facsimile of the Declaration of Independence gathered dust for seven years, tucked behind the office furniture, a court spokeswoman acknowledged this week.

And I thought they only treated the Constitution like garbage.

Valued at perhaps $500,000, it is one of about 30 copies known to exist.
Seems a little low. Shouldn't it be listed as priceless?
