It would be a little more due to the dates of purchase..I would like more information ... in Switzerland, which would be the best company option, in this volume...At the time they were acquired it was in the USA, but now it is living in Europe

@anderson1966: So, you're sitting on about a billion dollars worth of bitcoins, and you're asking for advice from random strangers on the Internet, instead of hiring a dedicated consultant to help maximize your returns?

I'm not sure that anybody was buying or selling bitcoins in 2009, certainly not for 21k (of what currency?)  The famous "pizza transaction" didn't take place until 2010.  I feel like you might have some bad info.  But anyway, you can sell your bitcoins on an exchange, regardless of when you acquired them or how much you paid.  We have lots of other questions on how to sell coins.
