pot of gold
Leprechaun's hidden treasure
A pot of gold is a large sum of money or other treasure, from the legend that a pot of gold lies at the end of every rainbow.
The phrase often suggests wealth that's elusive or illusory: He spent years chasing a pot of gold that didn't exist.
Sometimes used for any highly sought prize or windfall.
