Change in the details of Lasciel's Prison between when it was made in DM and a description of it in PG:
--- Quote from: DM ch. 33 ---"I dropped the coin into the hole. I slipped a steel ring about three inches across around it. I muttered to myself and willed
energy into the ring. The whispering abruptly cut off.
I dumped two buckets of cement into the hole and smoothed it until it was level with the rest of my floor. After that, I
hurried out of the lab and shut the door behind me."

--- Quote from: PG ch 6 ---Underneath it lay a foot and a half or so of concrete, and then another heavy metal box, wrapped with its own little circle of wards and spells. Inside the box was a blackened silver coin.
--- End quote ---
It is possible that Harry dug up the coin with the purpose of reinforcing the prison, but the narration makes me think that he had left it alone ever since he first made it.

Did you just add all those quotes?
Could you add Ch 7 to the SK quote, ch 30 to the first GS quote, and ch 20 to the last GS quote?
Oh, and your post has been linked to in the OP now :)

Done. I even found that WoJ I mentioned.

Thanks for doing such a great job of keeping our pontificating grounded. ;D

I do have trouble catching up at first often times, so I always try my best to stay within the rules 8)

This happens in chapter 41. It's page 376 on my nook.

I cant help but notice that others have failed to notice that pouring concrete onto the activated ring encased coin should have broken the circle.
unless its been mentioned....
