The jewels are an assortment of five different shapes and eight colors, almost 1" long, with a hole drilled in one end for making jewelry. Cast-iron, gold-plated doubloons come in four styles. The common design on the reverse side of each coin is based on an actual doubloon minted in the 16th century. The plastic treasure chests are packed in a cardboard, self-merchandising box with a colorful label, 12 chests per box. Free custom imprinting is available with a minimum purchase of only 120 pieces plus a one-time plate charge of $30.

Players build sets of matching cards, take sets from other players, and ultimately complete sets to make a Bag-O-Loot. Collect as much loot as you can to earn points and win the game!
While having a blast playing the game, kids are developing visual recognition, set matching, and math skills. Variations of the game help develop social skills, cooperative play, as well as planning ahead and strategy. It’s fun to play at home and works well as a classroom aide.
