PURPOSE: To increase the kind of receivable denominations, to increase the opportunity of play sale, and to unify the use of medals for all the game machines for operations although there is a tendency that medals of a low value are used for simple game machines and coins are frequently used for a high-level game machine at a game center or the like even when the coin identifier used for the game machine or the like conventionally immediately outputs an identification signal after the coin of any specified denomination (such as a 100-yen coin, for example,) is identified.

CONSTITUTION: To the new coin identifier, a count lamp 6 and an amount setting part 9 are added and when the coin of an accept object is identified and accepted, the count lamp 6 is turned on. When the summed-up amount of accepted coins reaches a set value of the amount setting part 9, an identification signal OUT is outputted and the lamp 6 is turned off. Similarly, the new medal identifier changes the amount setting part 9 into a number setting part and when the medal of an accept object is identified and accepted, the count lamp is turned on. When the accumulated number of accepted medals reaches the set value of the number setting part, the identification signal OUT is outputted, and the lamp 6 is turned off.
