Abstract
A bill receiving and dispensing device cooperates with a bill cassette, when the bill receiving and dispensing device is replenished with bills or when bills are collected from it, in such a manner that cash is not exposed to the public eye. At the time of replenishment of bills, the bill cassette, in which a fixed number of sheets of bills are accommodated, is received at an inlet/outlet opening of the bill receiving and dispensing device, and the bills within the bill cassette are inserted into the device by a manual operation. The inserted bills are accommodated in a bill accommodation box based on the result of determinations made in a discriminating portion. At the time of collecting bills, an empty bill cassette is received at the inlet/outlet opening and bills are drawn out from the bill accommodation box and are transferred to the bill cassette.
