Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0500367A2] The invention relates to an inductive coil arrangement (18) for measuring the physical characteristics of a token (26). The coil arrangement (18) comprises a plurality of inductors (12,14,16), each inductor being formed out of at least two superposed planar spiral tracks (28,46,52,58,61,61A,62,70) separated by an insulating layer (72A,74A,76A,78A,80A,82A,84A,86A) of a multi-layer electrical device (72,74,76,78,80,82,84,86), such as a plurality of printed circuit boards which are laminated together. Conductive paths (92) extend axially between the tracks. The invention extends to a method of manufacturing the inductive coil arrangement, as well as a to token validation device (10) incorporating the inductive coil arrangement. <IMAGE>
