Last night I watched a news from TV. A 100KG gold coin was stolen in a museum from Germany. This gold coin's purity of 999.99/1000 gold and therefore it is worth to a lot of money.
I just doubt how the gangs stole this gold coin because it is so heavy. And how do they deal with it so that nobody will find it out? Perhaps they have to cut it into small pieces and then sell it?

A coin that weighs 100kg isn't a coin as such...you couldn't put that in your pocket.
Although described as a coin it's more of a gold sculpture really.
It'll get melted down and sold if it isn't recovered soon.
Thieves stole a 100kg gold coin with a market value of almost €4 million in a dawn heist at Berlin's Bode Museum on Monday morning.

I'm amaze how people can come up with a plan to steal something so big and heavy and not get bust on their way out. It might be an inside job.

Nothing new. Anything they think it's worth selling they steal it with out remorse. I mean if they can still a statue that has crown worth thousands, what makes this one any different. It's all about money.

I really hope they find who stole them. I have often wondered the same thing!
