"The gold plates served as gold reserve of the ruling marquis," said Xin Lixiang, the head of the excavation's expert panel.
Liu He was dethroned due to what Book of Han described as his inappropriate debauchery and licentious way of life, making him the shortest reining Western Han emperor.
He was given the Haihun marquis title and relocated to present-day Nanchang, Jiangxi province.
