Abstract

A currency discriminating apparatus comprising an input receptacle (2204) for receiving a stack of currency bills and a transport mechanism for transporting the bills, one at a time, past a discriminating unit (2206) to at least one output receptacle (1217). Each of the bills has a denomination associated therewith. The discriminating unit discriminates the denomination of the currency bills using a plurality of magnetoresistive sensors (364, 366, 374). Alternatively, a currency evaluation system that discriminates and authenticates bills based on a plurality of retrieved characteristics. Alternatively, a currency evaluation system discriminating and sorting bills based on series.
