This group is used only when counting is of special significance, and then even when sorting does not occur, the special significance residing in the method and/or means of counting or in an influence on a process such as dispensing or storing coins.

Testing coins for genuineness irrespective of the context: the testing may occur in banking machines, vending machines, cash registers etc. Vibration and acoustic characteristics of coins are classified in this head group.

In groups G07D 5/02-G07D 5/10, in the absence of an indication to the contrary, classification is made in the last appropriate place

The expression "surface pattern" refers to impressions on the flat faces of coins and to rims extending in the direction of the axis of a coin.

Only testing of dimensions.

Vibration and acoustic properties are classified in the main group G07D 5/00.

Feature on the periphery of coins are covered.

Testing of paper currency in banking machines, vending machines, or cash registers, wherein both the identity, e.g. currency or denomination, and the genuineness, i.e. validity or authenticity, are assessed. Inspection, identification or validation processes can be different in degree of strictness, for example, basic features, e.g. size or colour, may be used to identify the denomination or identity, whereas security features, e.g. holograms, patterns, (digital) watermarks or metallic strips, may be used to verify the authenticity.

Assessment of fitness for recirculation.

The main group comprises two sections. The first section G07D 7/003 – G07D 7/01 covers the features of valuable papers rather than the methods and means of testing. The second section, G07D 7/02 – G07D 7/20 relates to methods and means of testing.

Classification is made in both ranges as identified above, whenever appropriate.

Watermarks visible to the naked eye, e.g. printed on paper with visible ink

Digital security elements, where the information is coded on a magnetic thread or strip.

While G07D 7/00 covers testing of paper currency, the printing of paper currency is covered by B42D.

Wrapping objects in general: B65B.

This group and its subgroups cover machines which accept deposits of paper money and dispense paper money. Some of these machines handle coins as well as paper money.

Other aspects of ATMs, e.g. posting transactions to existing accounts or aspects related to the interaction with the users, are covered by group G07F 19/20.

Payment architectures, schemes or protocols are covered by group G06Q 20/00.

Machines handling coins as well as paper money should be classified also in G07D 9/00.

These devices are mostly one-way devices: nothing is dispensed.

Dispensing of paper money is elsewhere in G07D 11/00.

These are usually placed near a cash register and mostly accept banknotes singly.
