To sufficiently detect the number of transported coins.SOLUTION: A money processing device 1 classifies input coins for each money type and stores them into coin storage units 24 disposed for each money type, and when a disbursement command is provided, feeds out coins from the appropriate coin storage units 24 and outputs them. The money processing device includes: transportation means for transporting coins one by one so that they do not overlap each other; and a count detection unit 37 for detecting the number of coins transported by the transportation means. The passage speed of the coins in a detection area 39 of the count detection unit 37 is higher than the passage speed of the coins just before the detection area 39.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2 【課題】搬送される硬貨の枚数を良好に検出すること。【解決手段】入金された硬貨を金種毎に振り分けて金種別に設けられた硬貨収納庫２４に収納する一方、出金指示が与えられた場合に、該当する硬貨収納庫２４から硬貨を繰り出して出金する金銭処理装置１であって、硬貨を互いに重なり合わないよう１枚ずつ搬送する搬送手段と、搬送手段により搬送される硬貨の枚数を検出する計数検出部３７とを備え、計数検出部３７の検出領域３９における硬貨の通過速度が、該検出領域３９直前の硬貨の通過速度よりも大きくなるよう構成されている。【選択図】図２
