It's quite possible that you percieve a change in the pitch because each successive coin falls through smaller and smaller distance as it hits the stack. Try dropping the coins from progressively higher points. If the pitch doesn't change, then what I'm saying holds true. If not, there's more physics to it.

Try rolling silver and gold coinage, much better sounding.

I had thought about that, but I tried it out and the pitch kept increasing anyway

If he is then he was watching Beavis & Butthead at far too old of an age.
