PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To inexpensively provide a coin hopper wherein a coin is not bitten between a rotating disk and a base on which the coin slides and is smoothly sent, even when each using coin includes a different diameter. SOLUTION: In the coin hopper, a through hole is formed in an egg shape wherein a large diameter circle part having a diameter slightly larger than a maximum-diameter coin diameter of use targets and a part of a small diameter circle part having a diameter slightly smaller than a minimum-diameter coin diameter of the use targets overlap, the center of the large diameter circle part is positioned on a rotation axis side of the rotating disk to the center of the small diameter circle part and on a rotation direction upstream side of the rotating disk to the small diameter circle part, and a peripheral sidewall of the large diameter circle part and the small diameter circle part is arranged in a peripheral part of the rotating disk. A guide hole is guided by a first arc-shaped guide face according with the peripheral sidewall of the through hole with the rotation axis of the rotating disk as a center on a side on which the rotation direction of the rotating disk is directed from above to below, and a second arc-shaped guide face positioned in an outer side of the rotating disk with the rotation axis as a center on a side on which a rotation direction of the rotating disk is directed from below to above and is directed to an exit opening.
