I just figured I'd add another aspect to this thread since it deals with clues that point to the casque actually being in Milwaukee.
This puzzle lacks the longitude and latitude coordinates, but as noted, the rebus spells out the city.
Something I think that is overlooked is that image in the cape serves at least two purposes. One of which I've never seen discussed anywhere.
The image is also an abacus that gives you the zip code of the area the casque is buried in. Ones place is at the top, Ten thousands place is on the bottom. Tens and Hundreds place are juxtaposed as not to be obvious.
So reading the number bottom to top like an abacus makes it 53022. Switch tens and hundreds place and you get 53202, the zip code of the area the casque is buried in.

So, What are you doing Sunday? Me and Derek/Derek and I - (reception and technology permitting) will be going live from downtown Milwaukee for Sunday Funday with George, Cole, and who ever else decides to drop in 🙂 We will stand in Byron's shoes as he takes a picture of Milwaukee city hall for JJP to include in the Milwaukee image - we will show you images and areas within a stones throw of that location that actually match up to parts of the verse and take you on a walk as we line up images, plays on words, paces, steps, etc.... I have put together a google doc with images past and present to help everyone follow along (please don't judge to hard, i am very tech challenged, this was a struggle to do!!) Most pertain to our walk, some do not, but they are of interest to others. There is a zoomed in 1979 street map at the beginning to help you orientate yourself to where we are, here is the google doc link - see you Sunday 6pmCST: docs.google.com/document/d/1REmYs998eyYOFYqfF5SlDNX-JC5FIOhYG1rWO1pIxw4/edit?usp=sharing youtube.com/@thesecrettreasurehunt

Learned a lot on the history of the city as well as local knowledge from the both of you. Was good to see a few of the spots around Milwaukee from that “boots on the ground” perspective. If you are taking requests I’d love to see around Juneau Park and the Milwaukee Water Tower next.

TY we enjoyed doing it, can't believe we were on for 2 hours!! We can do that, i did add a google doc of many of the pictures i have taken over the last 3 years, plus historical and 70s/80s pictures i have been able to find here and there... and links, resources for Milw. etc if you get a chance, delve into it, it is a wealth of information, i did add more today and will continue to do so as i come across more.
