Stack’s Bowers Galleries will hide a prize certificate at a different Philadelphia location each day from Oct. 13-17, with $10,000 in prizes available during the five-day treasure hunt.
A five-day treasure hunt is coming to Philadelphia, with $10,000 in rare coins, historic currency, gold and other prizes up for grabs.
From Oct. 13-17, Stack’s Bowers Galleries and local treasure-hunting account @findthecashphl will send participants to a different location somewhere in Philadelphia each day.
According to the organizers, @findthecashphl will post a point-of-view video at 5:30 p.m. each day showing a prize certificate being hidden. Participants can use the video to identify the location and race to find the certificate before anyone else.

The person who finds a certificate first is asked to take a photo with it, scan the QR code and send the image to the organizers. The certificate can then be redeemed for the prize at Stack’s Bowers Galleries’ Philadelphia store at 1735 Market St. in Center City.
Participants are encouraged to follow @stacksbowers_philly and @findthecashphl and turn on notifications before the hunt begins.
