The Bank of England has a fascinating museum in one side of it. They had an exhibit with a gold (or maybe tungsten) bar inside a perspex pyramid. You could put your hand in and lift the bar.

In the middle of no where in the Australia outback is Pine Gap. A secure research facility for Australia and the USA. Armed guards and totally fenced. Inside that facility, is a higher security section. With guards, with higher security clearance. In that section is a building that not even Australian citizens can get in, guarded by US soldiers. Seems fairly secure to me.

It's just a comms site nothing particularly special, there are partner sites for ECHELON in US and UK. Not very high security, just a few feds with rifles. Some Australian cleaner probably goes in there all the time. It may be US data but they will need locals to do much of the support.

I'd argue that Fort Knox is a lot more impenetrable than the Federal Reserve. You'll just get shot at the Federal Reserve for the attempted heist but you'll get destroyed at Fort Knox and won't even get to the point of seeing the main building let alone get anywhere close to the vault door. Fort Knox is a military base. The vault is underground behind one of the most insane vault doors ever constructed. The building leading to the vault sits in the middle of a piece of land containing landmines (one of the few areas of the U.S. that has active landmines). The building itself is deep inside the military base. There are Apache helicopters on standby at all times. Access to the base entrance is a highway/freeway off-ramp.

Expert-grade marksman. I am one of those, per the U.S. Army. The minimum for that is 36/40, and the ranges are 50m 150m and 300m, and from three shooting positions as well, so it's not easy. You need great focus and tight control on breathing. An expert shot misses sometimes...but it's honestly not at all common. One-shotting targets is, conversely, quite common, especially at short range.

[@Demmrir]

I suspect this is handgun marksmanship rather than US Army Marksmanship, since they're inside a building and likely to be using handguns and SMGs. Not to mention that they qualify in the bank's own shooting range, which isn't going to support 300m target ranges.

While the NY Fed gold vault is pretty impenetrable, I can thing of other facilities that are moreso. Some of these are widely known. Ft Knox has most of the same internal security features, but unlike the NY Fed, no one who isn't on staff can get anywhere physically near the building, which has a deep perimeter guarded by machine gun nests. And it sits on an army base who's troops and tanks are available for it's defense. Then there's the Cheyanne Mountain complex. I's dug into a mountain, and designed to take a direct hit from a multimegaton nuclear weapon. Then there's the bunker complex at Kirtland AFB in New Mexico where the military stores its undeployed nuclear weapons. Again no one except authorized personnel can get anywhere near the bunker, and the bunker has all the security features the NY Fed has, and more, and without the niceities necessary to deal with the public in close proximity.

[@chimarleywai]

[@KonradTheWizzard]

I wouldn't exactly call gold useless. Its resistance to corrosion makes it an ideal coating for electrical connectors. The ductility would make it nice as a sealant - it's just a bit expensive for this, so we tend to use copper instead. Alloys of it are ductile enough to be formed into virtually any shape with relative ease and hard enough to not be bent out of shape by normal every day forces - for example making it excellent for capping teeth. It's a metal with lots and lots of interesting engineering applications - why we waste it as a money store is beyond me...
