I believe I recall reading — when I was young — that this cube was 14’x14’x14’. May have been a Ripley’s snippet.

I remember when it was supposedly a 10’ X 10’ X 10’ cube which seemed ridiculously too small.

My "snippet" was that all the known gold in the world wuld only replace the bottom 1/3rd of the Washington Monument (whose base is 55' square, and whose height is 555 feet)
