Reading a couple of posts on here got me thinking.
What if the chest was never out there, and all Forrest had been doing was building a story around his little box of trinkets? Using his last 10 years, fattening its worth and provenance. Doubling the price of his gold, and selling us the most expensive jam jar in the world.
The goodies exist, but did the hide? All those coincidental dates do lean toward this being completely manufactured.
Now that would be impressive, and very artistic.
