Freezing Chocolate Coins Inside A Cake.

Hi there,
I'm not sure if this is the correct forum, so apologies if not.
I want to make a 'surprise inside cake' for my grandson, but I will have to make the cake a couple of weeks ahead and freeze it. I've done this before with decorated cakes and not had any problems with icing etc, but this time I want to include some chocolate coins in the centre of the cake. They are the kind that is wrapped in foil.
My question is this - will the chocolate coins be OK once the cake has been defrosted (very slowly) and is ready to eat?
Thank you.
Squirrelly cakes - thank you for that. I'll give it a go.
Brookebakescake - these coins are the type you get at Christmas - over an inch wide and wrapped in foil. They'll all be together in a 'secret' hole in the centre of the cake, so they'll be handed out individually once the cake is cut.
Thank you both for your replies.
My Gran used to make a similar cake when I was little. She would wrap up little trinkets and actual coins in foil and bake it inside the cake. It was such a treat find the "treasure"!
