Pieces of specific information from pieces of sensor information are compared with pieces of current discrimination criterion information, conducting authenticity and denomination discrimination of coins. New discrimination criterion information setting coins are selected through judgement on whether the denomination of each coin is consistent with a target denomination and judgement on whether each coin is suitable for generating new discrimination criterion information while conducting the authentication and denomination discrimination. A piece of new specific information is extracted from the pieces of sensor information about the setting coins. The piece of new discrimination criterion information is set using the piece of new specific information. 1. A coin discrimination method for authenticity discrimination and denomination discrimination of coins using pieces of sensor information outputted from coin sensors , comprising:comparing respectively pieces of specific information obtained from the pieces of sensor information from the coin sensors that detect coins with pieces of current discrimination criterion information, thereby conducting authenticity discrimination and denomination discrimination of the coins;selecting new discrimination criterion information setting coins from the coins through a first judgement on whether a denomination of each of the coins is consistent with a predetermined target denomination and a second judgement on whether each of the coins is suitable for generation of a piece of new discrimination criterion information;extracting a piece of new specific information from at least one of the pieces of sensor ...
