(This answer is based on the play "The Merchant of Venice" by William Shakespeare)
Technically, the lead casket contains nothing. However, as per the terms of Portia's father's will, the suitor who chooses the right casket (among lead, silver, and gold) will win her hand in marriage. The inscription on the lead casket reads "Who chooseth me shall gain what many men desire."
Therefore, the contents of the casket are not the prize itself but rather a symbol of Portia's wealth and beauty. The lead casket is meant to test the suitors' ability to see beyond outward appearances and choose wisely based on inner worth rather than material gains.
