A system for facing currency notes of a stack of notes, each of which is printed with magnetic ink on only the face thereof in which notes from the stack are moved one by one along a path past an examining location at which magnetic heads examine the respective sides of a note for the presence of magnetic material to produce first and second signals which are integrated over the period of time for which a note is at the location. The integrated first and second signals are compared to produce a facing signal which directs the notes to one or the other of two output trays in accordance with the disposition of the note faces toward one or the other of the path sides.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION One object of our invention is to provide a system for arranging all of the notes of a plurality with the same side up.
Another object of our invention is to provide a currency note facing system which is simple in construction and in operation.
A further object of our invention is to provide a currency note facing system which is reliable.
Yet another object of our invention is to provide a currency note facing system which simultaneously tests the magnetic characteristics of both sides of a note under test.
A still further object of our invention is to provide a currency note facing system in which notes fed to the testing area face up are directed to a first output tray and in which other notes fed to the testing area face down are directed to a second output tray.
Other and further objects of our invention will appear from the following description.
