What do the majority of scholars agree are the accepted dates of production for the very earliest surviving copies of each of the four NT gospels?

Are these dates known by actual notation of the original scribe, other dated material by the same scribe or have the dates been established or confirmed by testing such as Carbon-14?

Where are these earliest four copies housed?  Are they complete?

We archaeologists are rather fond of knowing the dates of the artifacts that we study.

See ** you do not have permission to see this link ** by Larry Hurtado.  He wrote a whole book on this subject.

I hesitated to provide this link to an academic knowing how my wife talks about Wikipedia; but, it does reference Aland, Metzger and Ehrmann … and has some well laid out charts.  ** you do not have permission to see this link **
