Coil whine can manifest in many different ways, the sound depends on the pattern in which the device draws power from its voltage regulators, and as voltage regulators often run at switching frequencies somewhere around 40-70kHz IIRC, and modern high-powered processors typically work anywhere from hundreds of megahertz to low figure gigahertz. So with this in mind I would assume there's a lot of harmonics in any sound created, meaning a fairly wide frequency spectrum. So not just high frequencies (50+ kHz is at or maybe even above bat territory, much less adult human.)
I've never heard stated anywhere else than in this thread that coilwhine is so high frequency that some adults can no longer detect it, I'm well over 46 years old and I easily hear coilwhine from a number of my PC devices, and also stuff like my Braun shaver's charger for example, and I doubt my hearing is particularly exceptional.
