A pronounced suppression of certain resonant conductance peaks in an applied magnetic field due to a density-dependent spin-polarization transition is predicted to be a clear signature of a coherent ``molecular'' wavefunction in the array. A many-body enhancement of localization is predicted to give rise to a {\em giant magnetoconductance} effect in systems with magnetic scattering.4 pages, REVTEX 3.0, 5 figures included as postscript filesCondensed Mattertext
