Most locations or activities in Minecraft might not give great loot, leaving players to work fend for themselves if they want high-tier items. However, one location/activity can net players valuable loot: buried treasure chests.

Minecraft: 5 seeds that ensure buried treasure loot

5) Buried treasure at spawn (Seed: -6585763263880398573)

This seed spawns the player on a beach, next to a lovely and quaint lake shaped like a heart. A spruce forest can be found towards the east of spawn. The beach continues and ultimately ends up in the ocean if the player goes west.

However, the highlight of this seed is the shipwreck and buried treasure chest that can be found directly at spawn.


4) Spawn near buried treasure (Seed: 5255823060500105168)

This Bedrock seed spawns the player in a gigantic plains biome with two ravines mere blocks from the spawn point and a buried treasure chest just above.

The ravines can be mined for early resources, which will equip the player to travel towards nearby points of interest and delve into the caves to uncover the many amethyst geodes lying around spawn.


3) Buried treasure adjacent to shipwreck (Seed: 4592288326724266307)

This seed spawns the player on a beach near a plains biome and the ocean. A village can be found quite close to spawn if the player travels northwest. The belle of the ball is the hoard of loot sitting on the coordinates 91032, 65, 1028. A shipwreck can be found with a buried treasure chest right beside it.
