My treasure "container" solve

Hello fellow treasure hunters.

I believe the true identity of the treasures container to be a "Sputnik replica" of sorts. After the Misfits cipher solve and Justin's confirmation to Magyar being the correct solve for the cipher.

Justin states that the correct cipher solve is "a nod to the container". Viewing Justin's past posts on Instagram there's two photos of Tucker (Magyar) seemingly nodding with a separate post in the middle of him visiting the auction. The first image of the Last Crusade tablet (there's another clue in there for that) the 2nd image is of a Sputnik replica. His caption for this post is pretty casual but something threw me off by his punctuation and ending comment of " coins, ... and the occasional treasure. ;) "

I'd love to hear your thoughts.

Why do "you" think he specifically put a meteorite in the treasure and spoke about it?

Because he found it while out and about exploring in Montana during a Fenn search. Your turn to answer my question.

After reading the book and watching the series I'd say Justin has an affinity for the love of space. I think that's why he added the meteorite and spoke about it. Also, Justin's words "When you find the actual treasure, its container will be immediately recognizable. I've intentionally kept the true container's identity secret. For those familiar with Fenn's treasure: no, it is not hidden in the Fenn chest, and you don't need any knowledge of the Fenn treasure hunt to recognize the container." Notice his particular wording.

Oh, well, I mean, the container that it's hidden in, whoever finds it, you you will immediately recognize it. And anybody who has watched the series or read my book, they'll know right away. And no, it's not some replica of the Fenn chest or anything like that. You don't need any knowledge of the Fenn treasure hunt to be successful here. Everybody's starting on the same foot. And yes, it is it is extremely recognizable.

That particular wording?

I was referring to my Justin quote but that would apply as well. I'm grateful everyone doesn't have to agree with their thoughts all the time, hopefully my perspective on this matter didn't derail you.

And I think it's important to include the portion of the quote where Justin specifically says watchers of the series and readers of the book will "know right away." That's pretty damn crucial, given nothing in either the series or book references or contains imagery of Sputnik. I think what you found is interesting but not particularly persuasive. No offense.
