You're making it harder than it is.

Wordpress will do it very efficiently. I just have to find the right theme and tweak it some.

Whatever will work is fine by me.

There are certain parameters of course and developing that list should be thought out - unless it can easily be amended and edited.

Ownership of images I had not given much thought to, but it might be best to identify the owner somehow, so that follow up inquiries can be made if the data fields were ever expanded.

I am still hopeful and eager to get something going.

bobby, if wordpress can fulfill the criteria, then awesome! Never used wordpress myself, but a bunch of ppl I know have (I've seen some great results and also seen some shockers)... Cant wait to see it.

Any policy on i) others contributing (I've a few German Counterfeits) and ii) image reuse (ie, using properly cited illustrations from catalogues)?

Shifted gears. Doing a non-public wiki and I got an incredible domain name, not using the one above. It's actually up and running. Customizing templates and such now.

I can see this is going to become big and fruitful, maybe the big 2 TPG will follow it.

I am out of town on family business, but I would want to open the site to any counterfeit that can be properly identified by classification. I would suggest a "clearing" process will be needed with proposed submissions being held in some location until they can be acted upon by one of the parties with full access.

One of the problems could become posting of original coins that "someone" thinks are counterfeit when in fact the coin is real.

As recently as last week a DEALER sold me a counterfeit that turned out to be a REAL coin. For me that is a bummer. But mistakes can happen.
