A paper discriminating apparatus is capable of discriminating different number bills. A paper, in which character strings inherent for each sheet are recorded on a plurality of character areas, is detected so that the paper is discriminated in accordance with image data obtained by detection of the paper. The paper discriminating apparatus has a character sensor for reading the plurality of character areas of the paper in form of an image, a character recognition unit for recognizing the character strings recorded on the plurality of character areas in accordance with image data obtained by the character sensor, and a character decision unit for deciding a coincidence between the character strings recorded on the plurality of character areas.
