A coin hopper that is configured to separate coins in bulk one by one and delivers the coins individually, comprising: a rotating disc that is selectively rotatable in a first rotating direction and a second rotating direction, which is a direction opposite to the first rotating direction; a recess that is formed on a surface of the rotating disc, extends from a central portion of the rotating disc toward an outer periphery of the rotating disc, opens at an outer peripheral end of the rotating disc, and is configured to receive and hold one of the coins; a moving body that is disposed at a position corresponding to the recess; a cam wheel disposed on a back side of the rotating disc and provided with a cam groove (266, 266a, 266b) having a predetermined shape on the rotating disc side; and a cam follower disposed in the cam groove (266, 266a, 266b) provided on a back side of the moving body, wherein the cam groove (266, 266a, 266b) includes a first route having a substantially circular shape and a second route connected to the first route at a first branch point and protruding toward the outer periphery of the rotating disc with respect to the first route, the moving body is configured to be held at a holding position, which corresponds to a central portion of the rotating disc, for forming a bottom portion of the recess and receives the coin in cooperation with the recess, when the cam follower moves along the first route, and is configured to move between the holding position and a push-out position, which corresponds to a position moved toward the outer periphery of the rotating disc, for pushing out the coin held in the recess toward the outer periphery of the rotating disc, when the cam follower moves along the second route, characterized in that the moving body is configured to move reciprocally between the holding position and the push-out position when the cam follower moves along the second path a route switching device (300, 610) is provided at the first branch point, and is configured to cause a moving route of the cam follower to be switched from the first route to the second route when the rotating disc rotates in the first rotating direction, and the moving route of the cam follower to be maintained in the first route when the rotating disc rotates in the second rotating direction; and the second route is further connected to the first route at a second branch point. a rotating disc that is selectively rotatable in a first rotating direction and a second rotating direction, which is a direction opposite to the first rotating direction; a recess that is formed on a surface of the rotating disc, extends from a central portion of the rotating disc toward an outer periphery of the rotating disc, opens at an outer peripheral end of the rotating disc, and is configured to receive and hold one of the coins; a moving body that is disposed at a position corresponding to the recess; a cam wheel disposed on a back side of the rotating disc and provided with a cam groove (266, 266a, 266b) having a predetermined shape on the rotating disc side; and a cam follower disposed in the cam groove (266, 266a, 266b) provided on a back side of the moving body, wherein the cam groove (266, 266a, 266b) includes a first route having a substantially circular shape and a second route connected to the first route at a first branch point and protruding toward the outer periphery of the rotating disc with respect to the first route, the moving body is configured to be held at a holding position, which corresponds to a central portion of the rotating disc, for forming a bottom portion of the recess and receives the coin in cooperation with the recess, when the cam follower moves along the first route, and is configured to move between the holding position and a push-out position, which corresponds to a position moved toward the outer periphery of the rotating disc, for pushing out the coin held in the recess toward the outer periphery of the rotating disc, when the cam follower moves along the second route, characterized in that the moving body is configured to move reciprocally between the holding position and the push-out position when the cam follower moves along the second path a route switching device (300, 610) is provided at the first branch point, and is configured to cause a moving route of the cam follower to be switched from the first route to the second route when the rotating disc rotates in the first rotating direction, and the moving route of the cam follower to be maintained in the first route when the rotating disc rotates in the second rotating direction; and the second route is further connected to the first route at a second branch point.
