hidden treasures
Concealed valuable finds
Hidden treasures are valuable things that have been concealed or lost and await discovery.
The phrase often refers literally to buried gold, sunken ships, or cached artifacts: Pirates supposedly left hidden treasures throughout the Caribbean.
Figuratively, hidden treasures are overlooked things of worth—an underrated restaurant, an obscure album, a person's unrecognized talents: The used bookstore was full of hidden treasures.
