Abstract
A method for determining the stock of notes of value in a device () for receiving notes of value includes determining the orientation of a note of value before it is fed to the device () and storing the order in which the notes of value are received in the device (). For at least a part of the received notes of value their respective orientation is stored such that it is unambiguously assigned to the note of value. For determining the stock, the respective orientation of a predetermined number of successively removed notes of value is determined. These determined orientations are compared with the stored orientations and dependent on the result of the comparison the stock of notes of value in the device () is determined.
