An article distinguishing system includes: an identification information acquisition unit, an image capture unit that captures an image of an exterior of a target article, a determination unit that derives a degree of matching between the captured image of the target article and exterior image data stored in a storage unit, and determines whether or not the current state is a normal state in which exterior image data for which the degree of matching is a determination threshold value or more is present, and a learning processing unit that executes learning processing if it has been determined by the determination unit that the current state is not the normal state. The learning processing is processing for storing the data of the captured image as new exterior image data in the storage unit in association with the identification information acquired by the identification information acquisition unit.
