Gold 1 oz Panda specifications and ping frequencies

The Gold 1 oz Panda is a gold coin from China (2016–2026), weighing 30 g with a diameter of 32 mm. Tapped gently on its edge, a genuine one rings at about 3.8 kHz, 8.6 kHz and 14.9 kHz: its first resonance frequencies, set by its metal, size and thickness. A counterfeit made of a different metal, or with a different weight or thickness, rings at different frequencies, which is what the ping test above checks.
