Thieves stole gold coins worth 1.6 million euros from the museum in just 9 minutes

These gold coins are said to belong to the first century 

 Thieves have stolen historical gold coins worth 1.6 million euros from a museum in Germany.

 Hundreds of coins were stolen from the museum in München, Bavaria, within nine minutes of the night, police said.

 The thieves may have first sabotaged the museum's alarm system and then entered.  Before going in, the internet wires in the vicinity were also cut due to which the internet was suspended in the area.

 The police are investigating whether this theft is related to any previous incident.

 Due to the failure of the system by the thieves, despite breaking the door, the alarm did not go off, but he has definitely recorded this incident of theft.

 The next morning, employees found shards of glass on the floor of the museum while the coins displayed in the show case were missing.

 Rupert Gebhardt, head of collections at the State Archaeological Collection, lamented the loss, saying: 'It's like losing an old friend.'

 Three large coins were stolen from another display case.

 Officials suspect that an organized gang is behind the theft and police are investigating any possible links to past incidents.

 In 2017, a 100 kg gold coin was stolen from a museum in Berlin.  Two years later, thieves stole 21 jewels and other valuables from the Green Vault Museum in Dresden.  This entire incident was also recorded on CCTV.

 However, police say they "can't say" if there is any connection between the thefts.

 Bavarian Science and Arts Minister Markus Bloom told local broadcaster BR: 'Obviously you can't just walk into a museum like this and take away its treasures.  It is very safe.  And it is reasonable to think that we are dealing with an organized group.

 Experts fear that these historical coins will be melted down, which will lose their historical status.

 They were found in 1999 during an archaeological excavation near Menching.  These Celtic coins are considered to be the greatest finds of their kind in the 20th century.

 According to Minister Markus Bloom, these coins give a glimpse of the daily life of people living in Bavaria 2,000 years ago.
