(Marcel Mettelsiefen/dpa via AP)BERLIN - Berlin police say thieves broke into the German capital's Bode Museum and made off with a massive 100-kilogramme gold coin worth millions. Spokesman Stefen Petersen said thieves apparently entered through a window about 3.30am Monday, broke into a cabinet where the ''Big Maple Leaf'' coin was kept, and escaped with it before police arrived. The museum says the coin is in the Guinness Book of Records for its purity of 999.99/1000 gold.
