Apparently Quentin Tarantino himself doesn't know; originally it was supposed to be diamonds, but he soon realized that was too mundane. Eventually he just decided to leave it unknown, so each viewer could imagine it for themselves.
Some fans have speculated that it is Marcellus Wallace's soul, which he had sold to the devil, and which Sam Jackson and John Travolta had managed to buy back from Lucifer for him. This is just a theory, but it is a pretty cool one.
>>This is mostly correct, the soul theory is that Marsellus sold his soul to the devil and became rich enough to buy it back, it was Brett and his companions that reneged on the deal of the return of the soul. Vincent and Jules are brought in to collect the briefcase from Brett and his friends.
It seems that the briefcase might be a reference to a 1955 noir movie called Kiss Me Deadly, which featured a trunk filled with radioactive material. Just like in Pulp Fiction, the contents of the trunk glowed mysteriously. However, Quentin Tarantino claims that the correlation is just a coincidence.
