treasure chest
Doubloon storage container
A treasure chest is a sturdy box or container, typically with a hinged lid and often depicted with metal reinforcements, historically used to store valuables like gold, jewels, and coins.
The image of a wooden chest overflowing with pirate loot has become iconic in adventure stories and games.
Figuratively, anything that holds a wealth of valuable items or information can be called a treasure chest: The attic was a treasure chest of family memorabilia.
