Absolutely; if the descendants of the MOH winner can't be found or don't want it, it belongs in a museum.

According to follow up report, the flippers said "family or museum" and it turns out they located family!

The criteria for award of the medial of honor has changed drastically since the civil war. For example, the members of the honor guard that escorted Lincoln's casket across the country were awarded the MoH for doing so.
