ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed a sheet handling machine capable of surely verifying whether the number of bills is one or not based on the kind of a bill even when bills different in thickness are inserted, handling the bills of different thickness mixed in, dealing with new bills issued in recent years using various novel feature technologies for bill forgery prevention, and detecting the presence of a foreign object in the bill surface. The kind of each of bills successively fed in is specified by bill checking means for identifying the kind of a bill, and reference thickness information regarding the sheet of a specified kind is read from a reference thickness table recording a bill kind and the thickness information of a bill full surface. This reference thickness information is compared with the information of thickness actually measured by a plurality of bill thickness means installed to obtain information for a plurality of places of a sheet, and thereby verification is made as to whether the number of sheets is one or not, and as to the presence of a foreign object.
