It's sentient treasure, aka a whole bunch of mimics
I've never thought about the life cycle of mimics before, but it makes sense that a creature that imitates a treasure chest might start its life imitating single coins and other small bits of treasure.
Perhaps they birth thousands of young at a time, and what looks like a pile of gold is actually a brood.
