- and
- an overflow coin guiding tube arranged in parallel with the denomination storing and dispensing device configured to guide an overflow coin dropped to the overflow coin slot to an overflow coin storing unit;
- wherein
- a collecting coin determining device arranged with the coin recycle device is configured to determine a coin to be collected and to output a collecting coin signal based on either a to-be collected genuine coin signal or a to-be collected fake coin signal, wherein the collecting coin determining device includes a to-be-collected genuine coin determining device configured to determine that the coin to be collected is a genuine coin to be collected;
- and a to-be-collected fake coin determining device configured to determine that the coin to be collected is a fake coin to be collected;
- the coin transporting and distributing device is configured to transport the genuine coin to be collected based on the to-be collected genuine coin signal, and to drop the genuine coin to be collected in the overflow coin slot;
- the coin transporting and distributing device is further configured to transport the fake coin to be collected based on the to-be collected fake coin signal, and to drop the fake coin to be collected in the overflow coin slot;
- when the collecting coin signal is output based on the to-be collected genuine coin signal, the coin recycle device is configured to guide the genuine coin to be collected dropped in the overflow coin slot to the overflow coin guiding tube;
- when the collecting coin signal is output based on the to-be collected fake coin signal, the coin recycle device is configured to guide the fake coin to be collected dropped in the overflow coin slot to the overflow coin guiding tube;
