> where an 85 year old man can carry a 40lb chest I wonder if you couldn't take it pretty far with a motorized contraption.

Then, even if they discover the contents, they will be unable to return to the scene. Also, it might be much less than 40lbs, assuming the treasure consists mainly of rare coins and gemstones, and not so much gold nuggets.
