John, I don't think you're going to get the same definition from digitally photographing a coin as you would a piece of pottery. I'd like to see the photo's you worked from to make that decision. You also hold a degree in archeology. That combined with your obvious research ability and tenacity would make the ossuary popping up after 2000 years in Israel seem easier to decide on for you than where and when a coin people have debated for 100+ years was minted. Less argument....get back to work!!<s>

I am pleased and happy for you that you have stewardship of them and I am confident that you are an excellent curator of what you have.
I never owned an ossuary, nor did I ever physically see or examine the original Oded Golan specimen. But, when it was first published in October 2002, on the very first day of its public debut, I was able to determine it had a fake inscription cut through an authentic patina, through high-resolution digital photographs. The Israel Antiquities Authority contacted me immediately to discuss this. Since then they brought the ossuary into their lab and proved my assessment was correct. This made world news. The persons involved in the forgery ring have been arrested and the case has gone to trial.
Not owning a single farthing, I am confident that I can do similar quality research on them and the halfpennies as well in all the various metals.
I am sure too that you thoroughly enjoy the proprietary right of the 1500+ Noyes photos. However, I hope you can appreciate that the Noyes photos are not the only photos in existence. There are others, more low profiled than yourself, who may own considerable more St. Patrick coins than yourself, and who do not need the Noyes photos since they can take their own, having all the copyright privileges.
I wish you, Brian Danforth, and John Griffee the best success in all your endeavors researching and publishing on the St. Patrick coinage.
