...the thief broke into a coin case about 3.40pm on Wednesday and escaped with 12 coins

Dr Byrne said 15 coins, part of the library's collection, were on exhibition in a "secure locked case" in a gallery at the library.

"Late on Wednesday, somebody came in and, after hanging around for about an hour, broke into the case. It was really very difficult to break into. Eventually he, I presume it was a he, did get in and made off with 12 of the 15 coins on show," Dr Byrne said.

I'm assuming it wasn't too difficult to break into if you can do it at 3.40 PM on a Wednesday afternoon in a public library.
 
Where the heck do you sell stuff like this? Its not like its a DVD player? Or should I not be asking?
 
I'm happy to but for $100 then ask of a reward for return :)

On a serious note. This is ridiculous and proves no one can have anything nice. Nor have it on show, for the fear of a scumbag stealing it! In the end, there will be nothing on show.
 
Wow. You would think a million dollars worth of coin is worth a security guard or two. Or maybe a display box that cost more than a 100 bucks lol
 
State libraries could become fortresses where only the academics fear to tread..not openly accessible,user friendly, places of enquiry

These artifacts are priceless heritage...PRICELESS...trust has been kicked hard again.

Bugger!

This is really sad cause I used to take me kids there to see them occasionally.... Everytime.. all times... they asked me if those were real... I guess now they know.
