Simple Random Treasure Table

You ever have that moment when you need to figure out how much money was in a room, or on some monsters, and forgot to figure it out in advance? Use this simple d4-based table to make up some quick treasures. All this table does is figure out the money that they have on them. You can use this table in two ways, you can roll once and then just move across the line of the table, or you can make two rolls. If you make two rolls, use the first roll to determine the first two columns, and the second roll to determine the second two columns. You could roll 4 4-siders and then just use one die for each column. This would give the most random of results, and might even work best.

If you want to go faster, just ignore the last column and assume the treasure is in gold (unless you're using Lamentations of the Flame Princess, then silver is the standard).
