Grammar

Quick question

Hi,

Let's imagine there is a gift box with a sticky note on top of it. The note says 'huge amounts of coins' indicating what it's inside.

Is the underlined phrase correct considering the context, and how about the grammar (use singular or plural)? Any advices for improvement?

Thx!
