101 COIN DISCRIMINATION APPARATUS PCT/GB1991000685 1991-04-30 WO1991018372A1 1991-11-28 COIN CONTROLS LIMITED
In coin discrimination apparatus, a coin under test rolls past first and second inductive sensors (C1, C2) which produce first and second coin signals (x1 x2) in dependence upon the coin under test. The coin signals are compared with data defining first and second stored windows (W1, W2) to determine acceptability of the coin. In accordance with the invention the data for the first and second windows (W1, W2) are stored respectively for providing both a first and a second window width ((W11, W12; W21, W22), wherein the first window width corresponds to the width of a distribution of coin signals associated with acceptable coins of a particular denomination, and the second window width corresponds to the width of said distribution but excludes therefrrom a range of values corresponding to fraudulent coins, and a coin under test is deemed to be acceptable upon the coin signals falling either within a first or a second acceptance condition wherein, for the first acceptance condition, the value of the first coin signal falls within the first window width of the first window (W11), and the value of the second coin signal falls within the second window width of the second window (W22), and for the second acceptance condition the value of the first coin signal falls within the second window width of the first window (W12), and the value of the second coin signal falls within the first window width of the second window (W21).

112 DEVICE FOR VERIFYING COINS PCT/CH1986000105 1986-07-25 WO1987000661A1 1987-01-29 AUTELCA AG
In order to verify whether the coin (2) possesses the stamped pattern of an acceptable coin, the surface of the coin is scanned by an inductive probe (5) over a track (10), thus producing a signal which corresponds to the depth of the impression along the track (10). The relative movement of the probe (5), which is needed for scanning, in relation to the coin (2) is obtained as the coin (2) rolls past the probe (5). A memory stores, as comparison signals, signals for tracks (10, 11) displaced in relation to one another on the face and reverse of all acceptable coins. These signals are obtained as the coins roll past the probe (5) from various starting positions. The verification signal received for the coin to be checked is compared with each of the stored comparison signals, if one of these comparisons results in acceptance within specific limits, an acceptance signal is generated.
