If Ozpin's cane is the artefact, then Qrow has it on him. The arguemnt for them being one and the same is that there is no other reasonable cause for Qrow to have it unless Ozpin had told him that it was somehow important and needed to be protected.

As for coherence? Well, narrative necessity can hand-wave that away without any perceptible effort.

I doubt that the cane is the relic, I think that he is supposed to hand it over to Ozpin's succesor (Oscar) once he is ready, or once Qrow finds him.
