PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent the overflow and clogging of tokens even when a token amount sensor of a token hopper performs erroneous detection. SOLUTION: In game equipment provided with the token amount sensor 1d for detecting the prescribed amount of tokens or less housed in the token hopper 1c, a token supply path 4a for sending the tokens carried on a token carrying line to the token hopper 1c and a token replenishing device for replenishing the tokens of the token carrying line to the token supply path 4a when the token amount sensor 1d detects the prescribed amount of tokens or less, an intermediate hopper 5 having a token stagnation sensor 5a for detecting the stagnation of the tokens is provided on the path end of the token supply path 4a, and when the token stagnation sensor 5a detects the stagnation of the tokens inside the intermediate hopper 5 during the operation of the token replenishing device, the operation of the token replenishing device is stopped regardless of the detection of the token amount sensor 1d.
