Abstract: A coin (5) under test is subjected to the changing magnetic field produced by pulsing of a test coil (1), and the decay of the resulting eddy currents in the coin is monitored by monitoring the coil voltage induced by the eddy currents. The times T₁ and T₂ at which the coil voltage falls through voltage levels V₁ and V₂ is measured by comparators (COMP 1, COMP 2) and a microcomputer (7), and those times are compared by microcomputer (7) with stored reference values to help determine the coin type.

The projection means attached to the lower body is dimensioned to be pushed through the bore formed by the aligned rings in a first direction, but is prevented from being removed from the bore in a second opposite direction. When it is required to open the container, the fastener is pulled with a force in excess of 5 lbs. and the projection means attached to the lower body is torn from the fastener. The lower body of the fastener is moulded in a collapsed form for subsequent assembly. The fastener can be quickly and conveniently applied and removed from containers without the use of tools.
