PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a coin throwing guide for a game apparatus, by which a player is allowed to throw coins continuously and smoothly. SOLUTION: The coin throwing guide has a bottom guide including an upward inclined surface 16, a downward inclined surface 18, and a top portion positioned at the border of the upward inclined surface 16 and the downward inclined surface 18. The downward inclined surface is formed with a stepped portion 17. A coin restraining plate 24 is formed with a resilient plate 13. Both sides of the bottom guide are provided with side guides to constitute a coin guide groove. When the superposed coins 60 are put in the coin guide groove and pushed to a coin restraining surface 22a, a coin group 60c on the downward inclined surface is slid in a backward inclined attitude, raised at the stepped portion 17, and collides against the resilient plate 13 in a nearly upright state. The coins are swung by the resilient plate. Even if the player applies a force to the coins so as to throw a large quantity of coins, a coin slot is prevented from being clogged.
