The transcript discusses the discovery and history of a significant document originally from the Florentine library, valued at around a million euros. It was sold to a private collector and later donated to the Library of Congress.

The theft involved a sophisticated reproduction that went unnoticed for years, requiring extensive verification to uncover the existence of two copies in different libraries.
