Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A treasure trove refers to a valuable collection of coins or other precious items that have been deliberately hidden with the intention of later recovery. The fact that the coins were all minted in the 1800s and buried suggests that they were purposefully hidden rather than accidentally lost or abandoned. Therefore, the bag of gold coins would most likely be considered a treasure trove.
