Authorities Friday were checking fingerprints and clarifying video images showing the theft of a $550,000 gold bar from a museum in Key West, Florida.
For 25 years, visitors to the Mel Fisher Maritime Museum in Key West, Florida, had the opportunity to lift the glittery piece of treasure in a special display case.
"It was touching something that came off the ocean floor," said Melissa Kendrick, the museum's executive director.

There's only 1 escape route from Key West. Unless you own a boat, of course.

This is, of course, way cool that they let you handle the gold -- I'm just amazed this didn't happen earlier!! Wow.
Even if they get it back that'll come to an end.
