Abstract
Apparatus for handling coins and tokens comprises a coin validator (4) arranged to detect whether a received item is one of several different coin denominations or a data-storing token, and thereafter to direct coins and tokens to escrow gates (18,22). A token interrogator (6) has antenna coils (24) disposed adjacent one of the escrow gates in order to read data from a token located adjacent the gate. The escrow gates can selectively direct items either to a return chute (16) or a coin store (26).
