Thanks SteveH and Tennessee Nana. My view is and has been, it's wildly optimistic to believe that ancient booty survives, particularly in the years since Helen Thomas died.

I know there is a lot of stuff squirreled away in the Vatican, but I agree with you it's very unlikely the Temple loot is in there.

Off topic, but I was goosed by a nun in the Vatican museum. I guess I got off lucky that it wasn't a priest. :-)).
