Rome was sacked in 410 by the Goths, 50 years before the Vandals got to it.

And that’s assuming no Emperor in a financial fix melted them down during the many civil wars fought for the throne.

The Goths stayed only 3 days, I think. I think there is a source which claims the Vandals took the stuff from Jerusalem when they sacked Rome. Of course that may or may not be accurate.
