Richard -
The news report states that various "experts" were called in
to address
questions such as these and the answers they can up with
satisfy logic and
known facts. That does not mean that these plates are from
Adams; it means
it is plausible that they are. We will likely never know for
certain.
If folks understood how very many of the important pieces
they see in major
museums are either fakes or acquired by improper means, they
would be
amazed. The entire area of provenance is full of smoke,
mirrors and
uncertainty.

Too bad he didn't leave any fingerprints on any:-)
