I'm sorry to say I did not notice it. It should seem hard to miss something like that if it is right inside the front doors, but thinking over my steps I believe I managed to pay attention to Smithson's crypt and to the wall of donor plaques and not actually notice things in the immediate entry way.
(It's also possible they relocated it. It seems like a natural fit for the Museum of American History, which I didn't visit, but I don't know. We'll have to go sometime and figure it out.)
