It sounds like you've got the basics. Also try:
- yellow 1x2 tiles for gold bars
- All chrome pieces as valuable artifacts (crowns, broadswords and
hydrolator crystals especially)
- Invert a few yellow antennae, and put opaque 1x1 round plates on the
top to make sceptres
- Don't forget the safes from the Wild West sets. Plain mailboxes can
also work here.
- Chains are appropriate. They always seem to show up in treasure rooms.
You could also make the room slightly smaller.
Or build a mound in the middle of the room out of bricks, and cover that
with the actual treasure.
