Could Maggie have taken up a Coin?
raidem:
It could be that to more fully use Lasciel to protect her, she'd further lose herself.

Neither Nicodemus nor Lasciel ever told Harry his mother was a previous holder. Why not? It would have been a strong argument to persuade Harry to try it as well.
The other thing is, with Lasciel's help, Margaret should not have been vulnerable to Lord Raith. Lasciel should have been able to block the sex whammy thing for her.

She could have taken up the coin after leaving PR, in order to block the whammy. Nic wouldn't necessarily know. Lasciel could have been conspiring with Maggie against Nic, and thus keeps this knowledge from him. Not telling Harry for fear that he would spill it to Nic and blow the plot.
peregrine:
The timing for Maggie to get the coin after leaving Raith isn't impossible, but is very unlikely. She met Malcolm shortly after leaving Raith, and had Harry shortly after that. And I can't imagine her having a coin while carrying Harry.
Mr. Death:
I'd say it's probably a given that Nicodemus offered her a coin, and Maggie was apparently short-sighted enough to have taken one.
Could it have been Lasciel? I'm not sure. I feel like Nicodemus would have mentioned so to taunt Dresden with the fact. But then in her final scene Lasciel does say she knows some of what Harry's mother was up to.

What makes you so certain this is the case?

Well at this point Maggie had met Harry's father, and had changed. If the theory that he was a KoTC, or even if he wasn't. If she really loved him, and it sounds like she did, she'd have probably given up the Coin.
If it was Lasciel it makes even more sense why she chose Harry. I believe (and could be wrong) that Lasciel requested Harry, and Nicodemus found it curious. How better to get back at the woman who refused her than to ensnare her son.
