Perhaps the McCrone statement is a bit too oracular. I interpret it as saying that nothing was found in the ink that would contradict the C-14 parchment dating, but that doesn't much limit or indicate the type of ink that was used.

There are pages in the VMs Zodiac etc. where subsequent enhancements were drawn in a significantly darker ink. Is that a different 'type' of ink?
