Abstract

Coin validation apparatus comprising a coin chute 2 arranged for directing a coin 1 entering the apparatus such that the coin will be brought into contact with a hard striking surface 3, a microphone 4 positioned to detect acoustic vibrations of the coin 1 after striking said surface, an electronic circuit capable of comparing data from said coin with stored data representative of a set of standard coins and indicating which value of coin corresponds to that having entered said apparatus, in which the part of the apparatus before the electronic circuit includes a coin detector arranged to actuate said circuit at a time when a coin 1 has been detected as entering the apparatus. The detector may be the microphone 4.
