係員作業を煩わせる問題を有していた。However, when the taken out coins are effectively used for other devices, the number of coins collected and managed until then becomes unknown, and the total number of coins counted thereafter does not match the actual total amount of coins collected, resulting in sales. The amount of money was sometimes unknown. In addition, since counting is done one by one, it takes time to perform the counting process, especially when there is a large amount of change waiting inside, it takes time to collect the coins, and the counting efficiency is poor, and the clerk does another counting. There was a problem that the staff work was troublesome, such as counting management using a dedicated device.
