Treasure Chest Emoji
Tagged gem, gold and jewels, treasure chest sits in Unicode's Money group inside Objects. It was introduced in Emoji 17.0 (2025) at U+1FA8E.
What treasure chest means
Pay day, prices, bills and jokes about being broke. 💸 is the one that carries feeling, since a banknote with wings is about money leaving rather than arriving, while 💰️ suggests a windfall. Only four banknotes exist, covering yen, dollar, euro and pound, a set fixed early and never extended, so most world currencies have no emoji at all.
Unicode tags this one gem, gold and jewels and files it under Objects → Money.
