Since the disc-shaped body excluding means is provided at an arbitrary position where it is stretched, the endless belt bends when collecting disc-shaped medals overflowing from a game table (pachislot stand) in a disc-shaped body conveying device, for example. Even if there is a gap (especially near the center) and it sinks into the back surface, it is removed to the outside by the disc-shaped body removing means provided immediately before the pulley at the other end, so that it is not conveyed to the pulley side. Therefore, the trouble (breakdown) that the endless belt is not damaged or cut due to the medals that have entered the back surface of the endless belt, the pulley is not damaged, and the drive motor is burned is prevented. The trouble of the plate-shaped body transporting device is completely eliminated, and the business can be performed without inconvenience to the customer, such as having the customer leave the seat when repairing the game table without stopping the use of the gaming table. Further, for example, in the disc-shaped body transporting device, the same effect can be obtained in collecting the coins of the disc-shaped body put in the game medium lending machine, and the coins put in the game medium lending machine are other, Since the disc-shaped object removing means provided just before the pulley on the end side drops into the external coin collection box, coins that have temporarily entered the back of the endless belt can also be collected. This solves the problem that the sales amount does not match.
