Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for handling coins.
- the coins fed to the apparatus via the feeder unit are sorted in a coin processing unit, stored in a coin storage system having at least two coin storages, and can be dispensed at an output unit.
- a device is from the document WO 2009/127731 A1 known.
- a transfer safe which comprises two input units arranged on opposite sides for entering coins. Only on the main operating page, an output unit is provided.
- a first supply unit for inputting coins is provided on a first side of the device. Furthermore, the device comprises at least one coin processing unit for processing the coins supplied via the first supply unit and a coin storage system comprising at least two coin stores for storing coins.
- the coin processing unit sorts the supplied coins into the coin stores at least according to at least one sorting criterion.
- On a second side of the device is a second Feeding unit for entering coins available. This second feeding unit supplies the input coins to the coin processing unit.
- this second feeder unit is available exclusively to the value-transporting company, while the first feeder unit is available for the coins supplied to the device by employees of a retailer or bank in which the device is installed. In this way, impairments to the employees of the retailer or the bank are avoided during the delivery of coins by a value-transporting company.
- the first side and the second side of the device are arranged opposite each other.
- Such an arrangement allows a large spatial separation of the feed units and avoids that the simultaneous use of both feed units, the operators who supply the device coins interfere with each other. Operators are, in particular, employees of the retailer, the bank and employees of the value-transporting company. Furthermore, this allows a spatial separation of the feed units, in particular when the device is integrated in a wall.
- the device has a control unit which detects the number of coins supplied to the respective coin store.
- the stock of each coin store is known and retrievable at any time.
- an operator can check whether a service intervention due to a full or empty coin storage is necessary.
- an upper limit value and / or a lower limit value are preset in a control unit of the device. When the upper limit value is reached and / or exceeded, the status of the coin store becomes full and / or when the lower limit value is reached and / or fallen below, the status of the coin store is set to empty.
- the value of the lower and / or upper limit value can also be automatically dependent on the coin volume and coin requirement at the place of use and / or the deployment time.
- the coin storage system comprises eight coin storages.
- euro coins circulating with eight different common denominations can be stored sorted by assigning a coin store to each denomination.

- a control unit logs at least performed transactions, in which coins are fed or removed. As a result, all changes in the coin inventory of the coin store are traceable. If at least the total value of the coins fed or withdrawn is recorded in this log, the valuables carrier can supply the device with bulk money, ie a coin bundle with any random mix of coins whose value and denomination are determined with the aid of the device. Since the supply price of such coin bundles is less than the supply price for unmixed coin packages with a known number of coins, this can reduce the cost of providing coins.
- each logged transaction is assigned an operator authenticated for the respective transaction. This ensures that an employee of the security transport company without the accompaniment of another authorized person, for example, authorized by the retailer or the bank, another person coins the device, since this transaction is preferably logged audit-proof using the protocol and audited if necessary, subsequently can.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zur Handhabung von Münzen. Die der Vorrichtung über die Zuführeinheit zugeführten Münzen werden in einer Münzverarbeitungseinheit sortiert, in einem Münzspeichersystem mit mindestens zwei Münzspeichern aufbewahrt und können an einer Ausgabeeinheit ausgegeben werden. Eine derartige Vorrichtung ist aus dem Dokument
Im Einzelhandel kann, beispielsweise durch Wechselgeld, mehr Münzgeld an die Kunden abgegeben als eingenommen werden. Alternativ oder zusätzlich kann es erforderlich sein, dass von einem Einzelhandelsunternehmen nicht benötigtes Münzgeld abgeholt wird. In beiden Fällen ist ein Einzelhandelsunternehmen auf die Versorgung mit bzw. Entsorgung von Münzgeld angewiesen, das beispielsweise durch ein Werttransportunternehmen angeliefert bzw. abgeholt wird. Dabei ist die persönliche Übergabe der vom Werttransportunternehmen angelieferten bzw. abzuholenden Münzen mit erheblichem Aufwand verbunden, da die Anlieferung der Münzen durch das Werttransportunternehmen auf die Anwesenheitszeiten von Mitarbeitern des Einzelhandelsunternehmens angewiesen ist. Auch für das Einzelhandelsunternehmen ist Aufgrund eines notwendigen "Vier Augen Prinzips" ein erhöhter Personalaufwand für die Übergabe von Münzgeld an das Werttransportunternehmen erforderlich. Außerdem ist, währenddessen der Vorrichtung Münzen vom Werttransportunternehmen zugeführt werden, keine Münzzuführung seitens der Mitarbeiter des Einzelhandelsunternehmens möglich, was zu Problemen im Betriebsablauf führen kann. Die Zuführung von Münzen durch Mitarbeiter des Einzelhandelsunternehmens kann beispielsweise dann vorgesehen sein, wenn bei einer Pause oder einem Schichtwechsel eine Kassenkraft die Münzen aus ihrer Kassenlade der Vorrichtung zuführt.In retail, for example, through change, more coins can be given to customers than are taken. Alternatively or additionally, it may be necessary to collect coins not needed by a retailer. In both cases, a retailer relies on the supply or disposal of coinage that is, for example, delivered or picked up by a value-transporting company. The personal handover of the coins delivered or to be picked up by the transport company entails considerable expense, since the delivery of the coins by the transport company relies on the attendance times of employees of the retail company. Due to a necessary "four-eyed principle", an increased personnel expenditure for the transfer of coinage to the transport company is also required for the retailer. In addition, while the device coins are supplied from the Wertverportunternehmen, no coin feed by the employees of the retail company, which can lead to problems in the operation. The supply of coins by employees of the retail company can be provided, for example, when during a break or a shift change a cashier supplies the coins from their cash drawer of the device.

Ausgehend von diesem Stand der Technik ist es Aufgabe der Erfindung, eine Vorrichtung zur Handhabung von Münzen anzugeben, die eine einfache Möglichkeit zur Übergabe von Münzen ermöglicht.Based on this prior art, it is an object of the invention to provide a device for handling coins, which allows a simple way to transfer coins.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch eine Vorrichtung zur Handhabung von Münzen mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind in den abhängigen Ansprüchen angegeben.This object is achieved by a device for handling coins with the features of claim 1. Advantageous developments of the invention are specified in the dependent claims.
Bei dieser Vorrichtung ist an einer ersten Seite der Vorrichtung eine erste Zuführeinheit zur Eingabe von Münzen vorgesehen. Weiterhin umfasst die Vorrichtung mindestens eine Münzverarbeitungseinheit zum Verarbeiten der über die erste Zuführeinheit zugeführten Münzen und ein Münzspeichersystem, das mindestens zwei Münzspeicher zur Aufbewahrung von Münzen umfasst. Die Münzverarbeitungseinheit sortiert die zugeführten Münzen zumindest nach mindestens einem Sortierkriterium in die Münzspeicher. An der ersten Seite der Vorrichtung ist eine Ausgabeeinheit zur Ausgabe der aus dem Münzspeichersystem entnommenen Münzen vorhanden. An einer zweiten Seite der Vorrichtung ist eine zweite Zuführeinheit zur Eingabe von Münzen vorhanden. Diese zweite Zuführeinheit führt die eingegebenen Münzen der Münzverarbeitungseinheit zu.In this device, a first supply unit for inputting coins is provided on a first side of the device. Furthermore, the device comprises at least one coin processing unit for processing the coins supplied via the first supply unit and a coin storage system comprising at least two coin stores for storing coins. The coin processing unit sorts the supplied coins into the coin stores at least according to at least one sorting criterion. On the first side of the device there is an output unit for dispensing the coins removed from the coin storage system. On a second side of the device is a second Feeding unit for entering coins available. This second feeding unit supplies the input coins to the coin processing unit.
Diese zweite Zuführeinheit steht beispielsweise ausschließlich dem Werttransportunternehmen zur Verfügung, während die erste Zuführeinheit für die Münzen zur Verfügung steht, die der Vorrichtung von Mitarbeitern eines Einzelhandelsunternehmen oder einer Bank, in dem bzw. in der die Vorrichtung aufgestellt ist, zugeführt werden. Auf diese Weise werden Beeinträchtigungen für die Mitarbeiter des Einzelhandelsunternehmens oder der Bank während der Übergabe von Münzen von einem Werttransportunternehmen vermieden.For example, this second feeder unit is available exclusively to the value-transporting company, while the first feeder unit is available for the coins supplied to the device by employees of a retailer or bank in which the device is installed. In this way, impairments to the employees of the retailer or the bank are avoided during the delivery of coins by a value-transporting company.
Vorzugsweise sind die erste Seite und die zweite Seite der Vorrichtung einander gegenüberliegend angeordnet. Eine solche Anordnung ermöglicht eine große räumliche Trennung der Zuführeinheiten und vermeidet, dass sich bei gleichzeitiger Benutzung beider Zuführeinheiten die Bedienpersonen, die der Vorrichtung Münzen zuführen, sich gegenseitig behindern. Bedienpersonen sind insbesondere Mitarbeiter des Einzelhandelsunternehmens, der Bank sowie Mitarbeiter des Werttransportunternehmens. Weiterhin ermöglicht dies eine räumliche Trennung der Zuführeinheiten, insbesondere dann, wenn die Vorrichtung in eine Wand integriert ist.Preferably, the first side and the second side of the device are arranged opposite each other. Such an arrangement allows a large spatial separation of the feed units and avoids that the simultaneous use of both feed units, the operators who supply the device coins interfere with each other. Operators are, in particular, employees of the retailer, the bank and employees of the value-transporting company. Furthermore, this allows a spatial separation of the feed units, in particular when the device is integrated in a wall.
Bei einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung hat die Vorrichtung eine Steuereinheit, die die Anzahl der dem jeweiligen Münzspeicher zugeführten Münzen erfasst. Dadurch ist der Bestand jedes einzelnen Münzspeichers jederzeit bekannt und abrufbar. Somit kann eine Bedienperson nachprüfen, ob ein Serviceeingriff aufgrund eines vollen oder leeren Münzspeichers nötig ist. Vorzugsweise wird ein oberer Grenzwert und/oder ein unterer Grenzwert in einer Steuereinheit der Vorrichtung voreingestellt. Bei Erreichen und/oder Überschreiten des oberen Grenzwertes wird der Status des Münzspeichers auf voll und/oder bei Erreichen und/oder unterschreiten des unteren Grenzwertes wird der Status des Münzspeichers auf leer gesetzt. Der Wert des unteren und/oder oberen Grenzwertes kann auch automatisch abhängig vom Münzaufkommen und Münzbedarf am Einsatzort und/oder der Einsatzzeit abhängig sein.In an advantageous development, the device has a control unit which detects the number of coins supplied to the respective coin store. Thereby The stock of each coin store is known and retrievable at any time. Thus, an operator can check whether a service intervention due to a full or empty coin storage is necessary. Preferably, an upper limit value and / or a lower limit value are preset in a control unit of the device. When the upper limit value is reached and / or exceeded, the status of the coin store becomes full and / or when the lower limit value is reached and / or fallen below, the status of the coin store is set to empty. The value of the lower and / or upper limit value can also be automatically dependent on the coin volume and coin requirement at the place of use and / or the deployment time.
In einer besonders vorteilhaften Weiterbildung umfasst das Münzspeichersystem acht Münzspeicher. Dadurch können Euromünzen, die mit acht verschiedenen gängigen Münzwerten in Umlauf sind, sortenrein gespeichert werden, indem jedem Münzwert ein Münzspeicher zugewiesen wird.In a particularly advantageous development, the coin storage system comprises eight coin storages. As a result, euro coins circulating with eight different common denominations can be stored sorted by assigning a coin store to each denomination.
Vorteilhaft ist es, wenn die Vorrichtung genau eine Münzverarbeitungseinheit zur Verarbeitung der über die erste Zuführeinheit und über die zweite Zuführeinheit zugeführten Münzen umfasst. Dadurch wird eine kompakte Bauform der Vorrichtung erreicht. Durch Mittel, die beispielsweise eine mechanische Blockiervorrichtung umfassen, wird sichergestellt, dass der Münzverarbeitungseinheit gleichzeitig nur von der ersten Zuführeinheit oder der zweiten Zuführeinheit Münzen zugeführt werden können. Diese Blockiervorrichtung kann beispielsweise den Zugriff einer Bedienperson auf die zu blockierende Zuführeinheit verhindern oder die Münzzuführung von der Zuführeinheit zur Münzverarbeitungseinheit verhindern oder die Münzzuführung von der Zuführeinheit zur Münzverarbeitungseinheit soweit verzögern, bis die Münzzuführung über die andere Zuführeinheit beendet ist.It is advantageous if the device comprises exactly one coin processing unit for processing the coins supplied via the first supply unit and via the second supply unit. As a result, a compact design of the device is achieved. By means comprising, for example, a mechanical locking device, it is ensured that coins are simultaneously fed to the coin processing unit only from the first supply unit or the second supply unit can be. For example, this blocking device can prevent an operator from accessing the feed unit to be blocked or prevent the coin feed from the feed unit to the coin processing unit, or delay the coin feed from the feed unit to the coin processing unit until the coin feed is completed via the other feed unit.
Vorzugsweise entnimmt die Münzverarbeitungseinheit eine vorgegebene Anzahl von Münzen aus mindestens einem Münzspeicher. Durch die Entnahme von mehr als einer Münze gleichzeitig wird die Ausgabe der Münzen an der Ausgabeeinheit beschleunigt. Insbesondere kann ein Münzstapel mit einer voreingestellten Höhe von einem in einem der Münzspeicher angeordneten Münzstapel nach unten aus dem Münzspeicher entnommen werden.Preferably, the coin processing unit removes a predetermined number of coins from at least one coin store. Collecting more than one coin at the same time speeds up the delivery of coins to the dispenser. In particular, a coin stack having a preset height from a coin stack disposed in one of the coin stores can be removed downwardly from the coin store.
Bei einer vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung hat die Vorrichtung Mittel zum Authentifizieren einer Bedienperson. Diese Mittel können insbesondere einen Kartenleser, ein RFID-Lesegerät oder einen Scanner zum Ermitteln biometrischer Daten umfassen. Vorzugsweise muss sich eine Bedienperson vor einer Transaktion mit Hilfe der Mittel zum Authentifizieren authentifizieren. Dadurch kann die Sicherheit erhöht werden, da die Vorrichtung dann ausschließlich durch autorisierte Bedienpersonen bedienbar ist.In an advantageous embodiment, the device has means for authenticating an operator. In particular, these means may comprise a card reader, an RFID reader or a scanner for determining biometric data. Preferably, an operator must authenticate prior to a transaction using the means for authenticating. As a result, the security can be increased because the device is then operated exclusively by authorized operators.
In einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung protokolliert eine Steuereinheit zumindest durchgeführte Transaktionen, bei denen Münzen zugeführt oder entnommen werden. Dadurch sind alle Veränderungen im Münzbestand der Münzspeicher nachvollziehbar. Wenn in diesem Protokoll zumindest der Gesamtwert der zugeführten oder entnommenen Münzen protokolliert ist, kann das Werttransportunternehmen der Vorrichtung Schüttgeld, also ein Münzgebinde mit beliebiger zufälliger Mischung von Münzen, zuführen, dessen Wert und Stückelung mit Hilfe der Vorrichtung ermittelt werden. Da der Bereitstellungspreis derartiger Münzgebinde geringer ist als der Bereitstellungspreis für sortenreine Münzgebinde mit bekannter Münzzahl, können dadurch die Kosten für die Bereitstellung von Münzen reduziert werden.In a preferred embodiment, a control unit logs at least performed transactions, in which coins are fed or removed. As a result, all changes in the coin inventory of the coin store are traceable. If at least the total value of the coins fed or withdrawn is recorded in this log, the valuables carrier can supply the device with bulk money, ie a coin bundle with any random mix of coins whose value and denomination are determined with the aid of the device. Since the supply price of such coin bundles is less than the supply price for unmixed coin packages with a known number of coins, this can reduce the cost of providing coins.
Vorzugsweise wird jeder protokollierten Transaktion eine für die jeweilige Transaktion authentifizierte Bedienperson zugeordnet. Dadurch wird erreicht, dass ein Mitarbeiter des Werttransportunternehmens ohne Begleitung einer weiterer autorisierten Person, beispielsweise einer durch das Einzelhandelsunternehmen oder der Bank autorisierten, weiteren Person Münzen der Vorrichtung zuführen kann, da diese Transaktion mit Hilfe des Protokolls vorzugsweise revisionssicher protokolliert ist und erforderlichenfalls nachträglich überprüft werden kann.Preferably, each logged transaction is assigned an operator authenticated for the respective transaction. This ensures that an employee of the security transport company without the accompaniment of another authorized person, for example, authorized by the retailer or the bank, another person coins the device, since this transaction is preferably logged audit-proof using the protocol and audited if necessary, subsequently can.
Bei einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist die an der ersten Seite angeordnete Ausgabeeinheit die erste Ausgabeeinheit und an der zweiten Seite der Vorrichtung ist eine zweite Ausgabeeinheit angeordnet. Mit der zweiten Ausgabeeinheit sind die von der Münzverarbeitungseinheit aus einem der Münzspeicher entnommenen Münzen an der zweiten Seite der Vorrichtung ausgebbar. Somit können der Vorrichtung nicht nur an beiden Seiten Münzen zugeführt sondern auch an beiden Seiten Münzen entnommen werden. Dadurch können zwei Bedienpersonen gleichzeitig die Vorrichtung nutzen, wodurch Wartezeiten vermieden werden. Daher können bis zu einer doppelt so hohen Anzahl an Transaktionen pro Zeiteinheit durchgeführt werden. Weiterhin ermöglicht dies eine räumliche Trennung der Zuführeinheiten, insbesondere dann, wenn die Vorrichtung in eine Wand integriert ist.In a particularly preferred embodiment, the dispensing unit arranged on the first side is the first dispensing unit and on the second side of the device a second dispensing unit is arranged. The second output unit is that of the coin processing unit can be dispensed from one of the coin store coins withdrawn on the second side of the device. Thus, not only can coins be fed to the apparatus on both sides, but coins can be taken out on both sides as well. This allows two operators to use the device at the same time, thereby avoiding waiting times. Therefore, up to twice as many transactions per unit of time can be performed. Furthermore, this allows a spatial separation of the feed units, in particular when the device is integrated in a wall.
Bei einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung transportiert die erste Ausgabeeinheit die auszugebenden Münzen in mindestens ein Aufnahmefach einer in der ersten Ausgabeeinheit angeordneten Kassenlade und/oder die zweite Ausgabeeinheit transportiert die auszugebenden Münzen in mindestens ein Aufnahmefach einer in der zweiten Ausgabeeinheit angeordneten Kassenlade. Durch diese Weiterbildung ist sichergestellt, dass die von den Kassenkräften benötigten Kassenladen schnell und einfach befüllt werden. Kassenladen sind Laden von Registrierkassen, wie sie beispielsweise im Einzelhandel eingesetzt werden.In an advantageous development, the first dispensing unit transports the coins to be dispensed into at least one receiving compartment of a cash drawer arranged in the first dispensing unit and / or the second dispensing unit transports the dispensed coins into at least one receiving compartment of a cash drawer arranged in the second dispensing unit. This development ensures that the cash drawers required by the cashiers are quickly and easily filled. Cash drawers are cash register stores, such as those used in retail stores.
Bei einer besonders vorteilhaften Weiterbildung erfolgt die Befüllung der Kassenlade mit einer von der Bedienperson auswählbaren und/oder von der in der ersten bzw. zweiten Ausgabeeinheit angeordneten Kassenlade abhängigen vorbestimmten Anzahl und Stückelung an Münzen. Auf diese Art wird die jeweilige Kassenlade automatisch in Abhängigkeit von der Kassenlade und/oder einer der Kassenlade zugeordneten Kassenkraft mit einer für den Einsatzort optimierten Münzzusammenstellung, bestückt.In a particularly advantageous development, the filling of the cash drawer takes place with a predetermined number and denomination which can be selected by the operator and / or dependent on the cash drawer arranged in the first or second dispensing unit Coins. In this way, the respective cash drawer is automatically equipped in dependence on the cash drawer and / or one of the cash drawer assigned cash power with an optimized for the site coin composition.
Weiterhin kann die erste Ausgabeeinheit und/oder die zweite Ausgabeeinheit die Münzen in vorgefertigte Münztransportbehälter, beispielsweise in Plastikbeutel oder Tüten, transportieren. Danach kann die jeweilige Ausgabeeinheit diese Münztransportbehälter verschließen, vorzugsweise revisionssicher verschließen, indem sie deren Öffnung beispielsweise verschweißt oder verklebt. Anschließend werden diese verschlossenen Münztransportbehälter mit den sich in dem Münztransportbehälter befindlichen Münzen von der jeweiligen Ausgabeeinheit ausgegeben. Auf diese Weise werden revisionssicher verpackte Münzgebinde erzeugt und ausgegeben.Furthermore, the first dispensing unit and / or the second dispensing unit can transport the coins into prefabricated coin transport containers, for example in plastic bags or bags. Thereafter, the respective output unit can close these coin transport containers, preferably closed audit-proof, by their opening, for example, welded or glued. Subsequently, these sealed coin transport containers are issued with the located in the coin transport container coins from the respective output unit. In this way, audit-proof packaged coin packages are generated and output.
Besonders vorteilhaft ist es, wenn eine Beschriftungseinheit zum Beschriften der Münztransportbehälter in der Vorrichtung vorgesehen ist. Die Beschriftung der Münztransportbehälter kann entweder durch Bedrucken oder durch Aufkleben von vorgedruckten Etiketten erfolgen. Alternativ oder zusätzlich können Etiketten mit Hilfe der Beschriftungseinheit bedruckt und die bedruckten Etiketten auf den Münztransportbehälter aufgeklebt werden. Vorzugsweise enthält die Beschriftung der Münztransportbehälter Informationen über beispielsweise Inhalt, Wert, Anzahl, Ziel und/oder Quelle der sich im Münztransportbehälter befindlichen Münzen. Diese Informationen können als Klartext und/oder in verschlüsselter Form, insbesondere als Barcode, aufgebracht sein.It is particularly advantageous if a labeling unit is provided for labeling the coin transport containers in the device. The labeling of the coin transport containers can be done either by printing or by sticking on pre-printed labels. Alternatively or additionally, labels can be printed with the help of the labeling unit and the printed labels can be glued onto the coin transport container. Preferably, the label of the coin transport container contains information about, for example, content, value, number, destination and / or source of the coins located in the coin transport container. This information can be applied as plain text and / or in encrypted form, in particular as a barcode.
Bei einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist die Vorrichtung in einem Transfersafe angeordnet. Dieser Transfersafe ist vorzugsweise in eine Gebäudewand integrierbar. Ein Transfersafe ist von einer ersten und einer zweiten Seite zugänglich, wobei die zugänglichen Seiten derart angeordnet sind, dass sich nach dem Einbau in eine Wand an jeder Wandseite eine der beiden zugänglichen Seiten befindet.In a particularly preferred embodiment, the device is arranged in a transfer safe. This transfer safe is preferably integrated into a building wall. A transfer safe is accessible from a first and a second side, wherein the accessible sides are arranged such that after installation in a wall on each wall side is one of the two accessible sides.
Hierbei ist die Vorrichtung so im Transfersafe angeordnet, dass die erste Seite der Vorrichtung mit der ersten Zuführeinheit und der ersten Ausgabeeinheit an der ersten zugänglichen Seite des Transfersafes vorgesehen ist und die zweite Seite der Vorrichtung mit der zweiten Zuführeinheit und der gegebenenfalls vorhandenen zweiten Ausgabeeinheit an der zweiten zugänglichen Seite des Transfersafes vorgesehen ist. Bei dieser Ausführungsform ist es dem Werttransportunternehmen möglich, unabhängig von den Servicezeiten eines dem Transfersafe zugeordneten Unternehmens dieses mit Münzgeld zu versorgen und/oder von diesem Unternehmen Münzgeld zu entsorgen.Here, the device is arranged in the transfer safe, that the first side of the device with the first supply unit and the first output unit is provided on the first accessible side of the transfer safe and the second side of the device with the second supply unit and the optional second output unit on the second accessible side of the transfer safe is provided. In this embodiment, it is possible for the value-transporting company, regardless of the service times of a company assigned to the transfer safe to provide it with coinage and / or to dispose of coin money from this company.
In einer besonders vorteilhaften Weiterbildung umfasst die Münzverarbeitungseinheit mindestens einen Sensor, der mindestens eine Eigenschaft einer zugeführten Münze ermittelt. Die bevorzugten Eigenschaften sind insbesondere die Echtheit der Münze, der Nennwert der Münze, die Währung der Münze und/oder ein Bild der Vorder- und/oder der Rückseite der Münze. Alternativ oder zusätzlich kann mit Hilfe eines Sensors eine geometrische Eigenschaft und/oder eine Materialeigenschaft der Münze, wie eine magnetische Eigenschaft der Münze, eine elektrische Eigenschaft der Münze, mindestens eine Abmessung der Münze und/oder das Gewicht der Münze erfasst werden. Auf diese Weise kann die Münze eindeutig erkannt und/oder eine Echtheitsprüfung durchgeführt werden. Dadurch kann eine einfache Zuordnung zu dem für diese Münze vorgesehenen Münzspeicher erfolgen.In a particularly advantageous development, the coin processing unit comprises at least one sensor which determines at least one property of a supplied coin. The preferred properties are in particular the authenticity of the coin, the denomination of the coin, the currency of the coin and / or a picture of the front and / or back of the coin.
