Clue 6

I'm still very stuck on Clue 6 and have really only had 2 trains of thought to follow with it.
The keys and the butterflies...
Both have lead nowhere although they point to a general location, although what we are looking for is a key word and phrase.. not a general location. I can make a handful of words work for the word beneath the pile of coins but the words above it are another situation completely.
How's everyone else getting along with this?

Honestly, I had a really good look at this in way too much detail but as I have been working on the clues, I have no idea! But it looks like it makes it all fit together somehow!
Very interesting!!

True that it does seem to have many common themes that pull everything together. I anagrammed the heck out of this clue page and there are so many options but none that fit the whole book enough to be a phrase or keyword.

Anyone working on this one still want to compare notes and figure this last one out? It's been sitting in my "complete this already!" pile for a while now LOL....

I suspect a playfair cipher with a keyword grid or a non tradionally populated grid in some way. Thoughts anyone? I think this hunt ends in August.

I was thinking some type of polybius/playfair as well but the number of letters don't make that a neat grid. The bundle of letters plus the keys - key letters/words then the 5x5 grid.. Also agree with Sword/words.

What do you make of the 6 question marks in this context? I feel like that may be our key word we are to submit, so 6 letter word. I can think of a few twisted scenarios to use SWORD/WORDS as a keyed shift with the letters given (idk something simple like that) and then have to anagram the letters from there. Seems busy though. Also is there a secondary purpose for the 5 locations, other than having to submit them?

Good question about the secondary purpose. If each image had a key hanging in it I'd definitely say so but not all of them do. There are 24 letters on the left side and also 24 letters/numbers on the right if you include the numbers and question marks. So wondering if the letters on the left equate to everything on the right somehow. Grid cipher with all of that somehow? There are also 6 butterflies. 6 question marks/6 butterflies. No idea where to take it all though.
