Some of what was found, is as follows:

Rubies, sapphires, emeralds and pearls

Replicas of coconut shells made of pure gold

Hundreds of thousands of gold and silver coins, some dating to the 16th century

Gold chains as long as 18 feet

Solid-gold human figurines and idols

Crowns and pendants

Gold and silver bars

As word of the find has spread, Kerala police are asking for help to safeguard the treasure, according to media reports.
