When I first played through the beta, I was never able to loot the Ancient Pandaren Tea Pot due to the high level of phasing so when the achievement came out, I knew I would be one item shy from completing the Riches of Pandaria. Thankfully, this was no longer an issue after the addition of patch 5.1.
Each artifact may only be looted once per character but only 18 are needed for credit. You will run into many of these just by levelling through each zone but to help keep track of what you’ve already looted, use the following macro.
/run print(IsQuestFlaggedCompleted(XXXXX))
where ‘XXXXX’ refers to the flag quest number of each item you’re checking. If the result comes back as 1, it means you’ve already looted that object on that given character as opposed to a ‘nil’ result, meaning you’re still eligible to see and loot the item.
Ancient Pandaren Tea Pot
Lucky Pandaren Coin
Pandaren Ritual Stone
Saurok Stone Tablet
Ancient Mogu Tablet
Rikktik’s Tick Remover
Statue of Xuen
Terracotta Head
Amber Encased Moth
Fragment of Dread
Hardened Sap of Kri’vess
The remaining list of objects do not seem to count towards any of the achievements but are still a great source of XP and gold. It’s no wonder these were one of my favourite ways to level myself to 90.

I’d almost forgotten these. Might be a great thing to do with my new Druid to break up the monotony of killing burning beserkers, lol.

It’s a great way to build up some extra gold on your alts too. I found two just by trying to collect the pics I was missing.

I used that macro when I finished mine last month. Another thing I found useful was Handy Notes and their Lost and Found plugin. It put all the icons for the items in the places they could be found on the main and mini map.

Oh I heard about that after I did mine. Sounds very handy indeed. I just wanted an excuse to post my images even though this will be old news to a lot of people. :)
