When was Marcone using his Coin?

[groinkick]

So Nicodemus was upset that Namshiel had launched an attack on Arctis Tor.  Now Marcone has Namshiel.  He worked with Mab to get revenge on Nicodemus.  Another thing to consider though...  Marcone's vault gave him a direct line to Hades weapons vault....  Could have have taken advantage of it?  Marcone could have been using the Coin for many years...  This begs the question as to what has he been up to since acquiring it...

I don't think Marcone was up to the weapons vault, he still might not be, even with Namshiel's coin.  Remember what Hades said about the artifacts, what keeps them out of the wrong hands.. Even Namshiel knows that, that is why he didn't make a move to get the Spear when he had the chance
in Battle Ground.

Keep in mind that marcone could not access hades vault the same way. Remember how they had to break in instead of negotiating access because it would change the nature of the location? Same thing if marcone just walked in cause he owned the place. Then it's not the same impenetrable vault it needs to be to link to hades armory

Also lets not confuse the vault that was located at Marcone's which held a lot of important and valuble stuff with the vault that actually held the Artifacts in Hades.

After Changes when Marcone imports that a castle to stand on the site of Harry's former home the assumption would be that it was Vadderung (directly or through Gard) who suggests that particular one with what turns out to be similar spellwork to Demonreach. Now that it is clear that Namshiel was also advising Marcone by that time, was it his recommendation not Vadderung's?

Except that -- in a mystical sense -- that's exactly what Harry was doing!
He was "confusing" the identities of the two vaults, making them "mythically" the same(ish) place.

Maybe, but that was more or less metaphorical, one was really the entrance to the other.. In this case it is Hades who has the last word, it is his vault that the Artifacts are stored in.  His responsibility that they do no fall into the wrong hands, there are tests to insure they do not..
