Here's a thread related to this question: http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?t=182808One more difference that the treasure analysis makes me wonder about: how closely distributed is the treasure in published modules to the "treasure standard" as reflected by the treasure tables in the DMGs?

Of course, the best treasure is magical, and since, IIRC, Quas isn't including magical treasure in XP calculations, it evens out.zoroaster100 said:I think that one powerful factor affecting XP earned in 1st edition is that in 1st edition modules much of the best treasure was so ridiculously well hidden in all sorts of arbitrary ways in the dungeon that it really would be unfair to assume any party would be getting all or even most of the treasure.
I’ve read this assertion before, but I haven’t seen this in the adventure modules I’ve gone through. The vast majority of treasure is not hidden. And that treasure that is hidden, is not much, and only rarely “ridiculously” or “devilishly” (as someone else said) well hidden.I think that one powerful factor affecting XP earned in 1st edition is that in 1st edition modules much of the best treasure was so ridiculously well hidden in all sorts of arbitrary ways in the dungeon that it really would be unfair to assume any party would be getting all or even most of the treasure.
