<p>A self-checkout terminal is provided which includes a coin recycling machine which stores a coin inserted into a coin inlet in accordance with a denomination of the coin and releases the sorted coin through a coin outlet. A coin receiver receives a coin released through the coin outlet. A coin path couples a coin slot and the coin inlet, and a fake coin path diverges from the coin path toward the coin receiver. A judging unit judges whether a coin inserted into the coin slot is real or fake, and a sorting unit sorts a coin judged to be fake into the fake coin path. When a coin inserted into the coin slot is judged to be fake and is sorted into the fake coin path, information that there is something wrong with the coin is provided to a customer. A coin as change is released through the coin outlet.
