Skyrim fans baffled after finding huge gold hoard we’ve never seen before

Skyrim fans are baffled after discovering a huge horde of gold that almost feels like it’s too good to be true.

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is one of the most popular video games of all time. It’s absolutely why players can never get enough of its Tamriel adventures after all these years since it was originally released in 2011, not to mention that Bethesda has released it on every console generation since.

Whether it’s embarking on main story missions or side quests, slaying mythical beasts or exploring an eerie cave, there’s so much to enjoy with Bethesda’s beloved fantasy RPG, Skyrim. Hopefully, it will still be keeping us busy by the time The Elder Scrolls VI decides to grace us with its presence.

For a game as huge as Skyrim, there’s a good chance that there are still plenty of secrets waiting to be discovered, such as this huge pot of gold that has left some fans feeling somewhat baffled.

“There's always money in the apiary,” revealed Redditor Valuable-Ice9726. “But why, and why so much? At Tundra homestead, in both hives. I want this backstory, that's a lot of sheckles.”

“If I were a thief, and I wanted to stash my cash, I'd say the last place someone would look would be an apiary,” replied Melonmode.

“Just don't light it on fire for insurance scams,” said FromUnderTheWineCork.

“That is one hell of a glitch, or you've got a weird mod running. That's not supposed to happen,” suggested HollyHartWitch, very likely speaking the truth.

I would normally suggest that you’d want to take advantage of this possible glitch before Bethesda patches it out. But who I am kidding, Bethesda isn't patching that out anytime soon.

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is out now on PC, PlayStation, Xbox and Nintendo Switch. It’s also available with an Xbox Game Pass subscription at no extra cost.
