In 1974, WCPO Anchor Al Schottelkotte got a rare look inside the gold vault at Fort Knox, Kentucky. walked past guards armed with submachine guns and through a 3-foot thick steel door into the vault holding nearly one-half of the U.S. government’s gold deposits - roughly $22 billion worth, by market value at the time. Along with a photographer, Schottelkotte got to go inside one of the 13 rooms where numbered gold bars were stacked up to the 8-feet ceiling. Inside that room, Schottelkotte was within arm’s reach of nearly $1.8 billion.
