The image is a page from a book titled "Silver Treasures". The page is divided into two sections. The top section has a title that reads "No one ever yet possessed so much silver as to want no more; if a man finds himself with a huge amount of it, he takes as much pleasure in burying the surplus as in using it." Below the title, there is a description of the contents of the book.

The bottom section of the page has an image of a pile of silver coins. The coins are arranged in a pyramid-like shape and appear to be of different sizes and colors. The text on the page explains that some collections of ancient objects survive today because they were buried in houses, shrines, or graves. In times of war, owners were buried their valuable belongings with the hope of coming back at a safer time to recover them. The image also mentions that the coins were made of precious metals and were offered as gifts to the gods and sanctuaries.
