Or that the fallen can directly handle matter, as in a coin?  My assumption has always been that to get to that coin, Nic would have had to dig through that pile of rocks.  The fallen act through their hosts, or am I missing something?

There's evidence Anduriel can interact with matter directly when he's driving Nic's shadow around - that was how Dresden got captured in DM. He may be unique among the Fallen in that, and it's uncertain whether he can exert enough force to excavate the coin, but it's a possible explanation if Jim wants the coin back in circulation.

Standing Denarians being able to summon another Fallen's coin is unproven. The Church seems to think they're preventing something with the blessed kerchiefs and warded strongboxes, but they could be wrong about the enemy's capabilities.

morriswalters:
When Harry is having the final face off with Lasciel she tells him that mortals can't contain the coin.  Hades isn't a mortal and he guarded the Holy Grail.  If Lasciel's coin didn't leave with Nicodemus, she's going to have a hard time getting out.  I think she'll look good displayed on a pedestal in his collection.

spiritofair:
From a story telling perspective, it would be shocking to see Lasciel done and gone and trapped in Hades vault for good. I just think that Lasciel's going to have a role going forward.

So, either Nic got the coin, which is the most obvious way for it to get out and one that is totally supported by the events as others have posited, the coin will escape on its own due to it's nature, Bonnie will summon "Mother" somehow at some point, or someone will go to the vault and get it. Of course, Jim is infinitely creative and may have another idea in mind, too, but those are the ones that immediately come to mind.

Bad Alias:
I don't see any story Lasciel has left in the Dresden Files. But that doesn't mean there isn't one. If it was clear to me why Lasciel needs to be in the story down the road, that would be a reason to believe that the coin gets back into circulation, but not necessarily that Nic got it out.

The story doesn't need Lasciel, there is plenty of her in Bonny along with Harry's Id, he will be fighting against their influence as much as he will be calling on them to help.   I believe that has
been hinted at by Jim.
