Easy riddle

You are an archaeologist that has just unearthed a long-sought pair of ancient treasure chests. One chest is plated with silver, and the other is plated with gold. According to legend, one of the two chests is filled with great treasure, whereas the other chest houses a man-eating python that can rip your head off. Faced with a dilemma, you then notice that there are inscriptions on the chests:<br><br>Silver Chest-<br>This chest contains the python. <br>Gold chest-<br>One of these inscriptions is true<br><br>Based on these inscriptions, which chest should you open? <br><br>

Re:Easy riddle

Open the silver one because the deadly fumes that silver gives off as it tarnishes in the enclosed confines of the chest will kill the snake, so if it is in there, it will be dead. ;D<br>
