ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a coin change which comprises a coin sort section50for sorting coins C discharged from an input hopper21, and a coin storage section60for storing the coins C sorted by the coin sort section50on a coin type by type basis. The coin storage section60includes a plurality of coin storage grooves63provided respectively to the plural coin types and disposed parallel to each other. Each of the coin storage grooves has a width dimension slightly greater than the diameter of a corresponding one of the types of coins and extends approximately horizontally. The coin storage section60also includes a stacking belt65disposed along the base of each of the coin storage grooves to extend in the longitudinal direction of the coin storage grooves, and a stopper member disposed at the downstream end of each of the coin storage grooves and adapted to be moved between a coin-passing-enabling position of allowing one or more of the coins C to pass therethrough and a stack position preventing the passing of the coins C so as to allow the subsequent coins C to be stacked on each other
