While there is a good reason (physically) why there shouldn't be a chest in a chest. I see no reason why an ?Acq scroll shouldn't produce another ?Acq scroll. It's silly, but doesn't seem like a bug to me. (it would be a bug if it occurred more than 1% of the time though.)

There could also be smaller chest inside larger one. Matryoshka doll -chests. Other way around it would require time lord technology, and that doesn't fit in angband universe.

In the last and deadliest you find 10 copper coins.

Binding of Isaac has chests that sometimes contain smaller chests. This can be hugely irritating when you have a limited supply of keys and decide to spend one on the chest, only for it to pop out another locked chest...

Sometimes the nesting goes 4+ levels deep, and the last (tiny) chest then spews out a gigantic number of items.

Regarding Angband, perhaps there could be a trap that causes a chest to fall from the ceiling and hit you on the head?

Not Vanilla feel, but for the right variant (horror themed? Is there a more recent one than Cthanband?), having the smallest one cast Summon Cenobites some of the time could be fun.

You bump into a wall. You are stunned. It mumbles. You have been given a nasty cut. You die.

Too soon?

Or simply a piece of paper with "Hahaha gotcha - signed: Morgoth".
