The age of the coins mentioned in the article is from the wrong dynasty to be the Biblical Joseph.

Not only that:
The researcher also pointed out that the coins made of precious metals or stones usually had a hole in them... allowing them to be [worn] around the neck or on the chest... [and] were scarab-shaped.
IOW, the upper crust Egyptians were medallion men. ;') Joseph was in Egypt in the 12th Dynasty, and the Egyptian name this "researcher" gives for him isn't correct anyway.
