Abstract
An automatic teller machine capable of verifying the authenticity of bank notes while maintaining high-speed execution of transactions. The machine comprises a bill validator outputs a result of verification of whether a received note could be classified or not, and a cash box for notes unclassified by verification results, and a cash box for notes other than unclassified notes. After transaction hours, re-verification is carried out, in which notes are retrieved one sheet at a time from the unclassified note box and sensed again by a sensor, and the bill validator receives a signal from the sensor and re-verifies the note by using an algorithm with higher accuracy than in verification at the time of a receiving transaction.
