I wouldn’t be surprised if Marcone has dropped his coin once and shown Namshiel his plans as an inducement for his good behaviour with the stick, as well as the carrot of being able to indulge his magical nerdism away from Nicky.

It doesn't work that way though.

Nicodemus still thinks he is in command.

Yup, and that "partnership" with Andriel is what Lasciel tried to sell Harry on, but he wasn't buying.

No Coin>>> No magic and no shadow. Unless Butcher wants to break canon completely. This is well established. Put down the coin and anything the coin brought to the table is put down with it. Marcone isn't a wizard. And you can't make a silk purse from a sow's ear. If he puts down the coin no more magic.
And this is Butcher's intent. You might find this funny, but he has now come full circle. With Murphy dead law enforcement is now back in the antagonist column.
Conspiracy Theorist:
Sanya put down his coin, entirely possible.
As for the power? There are other options, (as Harry once opined) such as the Kringle Mantle making him a genuine Faerie Godfather. Mab and Vadderung owe him big time after Chicago
A lot of people have oft declaimed about Marcone mirroring Harry. So this is definitely an option. Besides this would make Ms Demeter Mrs Kringle, and she knows all about the Ho Ho Ho (sorry for the bad taste, but I can’t resist a pun and NEVER apologise for a pun.).
Besides you can just imagine Jim has been saving up Harry calling Marcone a Faerie Godfather for years.
