Well when your end goal is to devalue a countries currency, destroy, isn't a biased term. For sake of the question at hand, I get it..but damn man.

If I really needed to lose money, I would start an alt.country music festival

I’d make a 3 months advance payment on the yacht and choppers.

So if I buy a famous piece of art for millions and it accidently burns up in a terrible car accident, that counts?

I’d do exact what he did but keep better records. Then collect the money

I think I could buy a certain 15 posters here for what they think they're worth, sell them for what they're really worth and manage to lose it all.

What if I found something worth a good bit of money in an auction, bid $68 million on it.
Then, after winning it, sell it for $3 million, and donate the $3 million to Charity?
After 30 days, I would no longer own the item, I did not destroy it, and the money I donated to Charity is less than 5% of the total.

I think I buy a ton of real estate and sell it to family and friends for pennies on the dollar

I would buy a NASL soccer team for $1,000,000.
Then pay Leicester City of the English Premier League $67 million transfer fee for Jamie Vardy.
Declare bankruptcy.
Done.

NOTE: in the movie, as I recall, he buys a one-of-a-kind stamp (the upside-down biplane, I think, worth TONS) and affixes it to a postcard and mails it to the movie antagonist.
I always thought this was, more or less, destroying the value of the stamp, by degradation (handling, licking, post-marking, etc.). So thus a violation of the rules.
But I'm no philatelic.
P.S. good post, OP!

He didn't destroy the stamp. He devalued it by using it for its intended purpose.

glass is on this one for sure.
I had an opportunity to fly on a private plane to Florida a few years ago for an athletic event for a few of our kids in our school. Partial owner of said airplane had to back out and offered me to fly in his place....at $$$$$ money, way more than flying commercial, but the convenience was unbeatable: leave when we are done and in Laffy way before midnight.
It wound up being a no-go for the private plane, and for good reason.......relevent to the OP.

By that logic, he could have bought the Apollo 11 Command Module and strapped it on a Falcon Heavy, and wind up with it heading towards Mars... but most would agree he destroyed the historically significant item.
