The preamble begins by including the people in the purposes and objectives that the country wants to achieve with the establishment of the republic. At this point in the text, the authors made a strong appeal to emotion. This is because when they used the expression "We the People" they made the public feel included and united together for a single purpose. This term also reaffirms the responsibility for the equality that was being established in the country.
The commitment to equality is so great that the preamble's authors decided to use a simple diction, with commonly known words, leaving the text direct, objective and logical, allowing absolutely all citizens of the country to understand it, regardless of the level of education that they presented. Despite this, the text presents itself in a very punctual and not at all widespread manner, concisely setting out what it wants to achieve.

These things lead me to conclude that the object is either an old coin, winning lottery ticket, or an old dollar.
