<p>A device for checking coins comprises a coil sensor, in which an AC-operated transmission coil (12) and a receiver coil (14) stand with their magnetic axes (13 or 15) vertically on top of one another. The coins (11) guided along a coin-loading path (10) through the magnetic field effect a strong coupling of the normally minimally coupled coils due to the eddy currents induced herein. The change in the amplitude and phase of the output of the receiver coil (14) serves to generate the coin-acceptance signal (36). <IMAGE></p> |
