I’ve been wondering if it really is the right decision to put things on display which have both, a significant material value, and historical value.

The gold of these gold coins seems to have had roughly 250,000€ in value.
That seems like a lot of incentive to steal and melt it down.

And what is the benefit of displaying the actual items? It’s not rare that the public is only shown a fake, one that just looks good enough to get the impression of the item.

I was thinking (and haven’t decided yet if the idea is good) that stuff of this nature (material value + historical value) may be better off being in a more secured place somewhere, where it still can be studied by people when required, but the public can’t get at it as easily. With fakes being shown in Museums. Those fakes could them allow more interaction (like touching a dinosaur teeth/bones), and the original doesn’t suffer damage from people touching it, light and/or people stealing it and melting it down.

Museums don’t generally show fakes they usually show the originals
