A coin transporting device which transports coins, comprising: a feeding unit which pools coins not aligned and feeds the pooled coins one by one; a transport path which receives coins fed from the feeding unit; a transporting body including a plurality of projections which receive coins fed into the transport path from the feeding unit and enables the coins to be pushed and transported one by one on the transport path; a transporting body driving unit which drives the transporting body; a discharge gate which is provided in the feeding unit and allows coins to be pooled in the feeding unit in a gate closed state, and allows the coins inside the feeding unit to be discharged to the outside in a gate opened state; and a discharge gate driving unit which drives the discharge gate; a coin takeout unit formed so as to receive coins discharged from the discharge gate and allow the received coins to be taken out from the outside of the device; and a control unit which feeds coins into the transport path by driving the feeding unit when transporting the coins, transports coins on the transport path by the transporting body by driving the transporting body driving unit, characterised in that when coins jam in the transport path during coin transportation, the control unit stops driving of the feeding unit, opens the discharge gate by driving the discharge gate driving unit, returns the coins jamming in the transport path to the feeding unit by the transporting body by driving the transporting body driving unit in a direction opposite to a transporting direction, and subsequently discharges the coins to the coin takeout unit via the discharge gate. a feeding unit which pools coins not aligned and feeds the pooled coins one by one; a transport path which receives coins fed from the feeding unit; a transporting body including a plurality of projections which receive coins fed into the transport path from the feeding unit and enables the coins to be pushed and transported one by one on the transport path; a transporting body driving unit which drives the transporting body; a discharge gate which is provided in the feeding unit and allows coins to be pooled in the feeding unit in a gate closed state, and allows the coins inside the feeding unit to be discharged to the outside in a gate opened state; and a discharge gate driving unit which drives the discharge gate; a coin takeout unit formed so as to receive coins discharged from the discharge gate and allow the received coins to be taken out from the outside of the device; and a control unit which feeds coins into the transport path by driving the feeding unit when transporting the coins, transports coins on the transport path by the transporting body by driving the transporting body driving unit, characterised in that when coins jam in the transport path during coin transportation, the control unit stops driving of the feeding unit, opens the discharge gate by driving the discharge gate driving unit, returns the coins jamming in the transport path to the feeding unit by the transporting body by driving the transporting body driving unit in a direction opposite to a transporting direction, and subsequently discharges the coins to the coin takeout unit via the discharge gate.
