it counts how many pieces of paper you run thru it. It does not determine where it comes from.

It counts the number of bills that go through it. I don't think it would be able to tell the difference between Mexican and American but to be certain you need to contact the manufacturer.

You have to use the counter by each denomination that you select in the value. It will give you a grand total at the end for all values, but if you have to clear any jams, I am not sure if the total is correct. One problem I had is when a denomination got in another stack like a $5 got in the $1 stack and it counts it as $1. That has happened to us a few times. If you are careful, we have been very pleased with the operation of the machine and it's value. By the way, we run each denomination twice and write down the value and total on a worksheet.Tommy

The counter DOES NOT accept dollar coins and also says not to put foreign coins through it.

It does count any kind of bills... But you have to disable the counterfeit option in order to count bolivares or any other currency but dollars... It works great, im from venezuela actually and Im glad I bought it... Really recommend it to anyone!!

US currency!!! I am so happy to answer this for you! I wish I could have gotten a definitive answer when I was considering buying it. I wanted it for my struggling 2nd grade ESL students, and it looked perfect. I took a chance, but in the meantime figured out how I could use the Canadian money without confusing the kids too much. But luckily it was in US currency!

it just counts the bills. it will not tell you how many 2 dollar bills you have or how many 5 dollar bills. just the total number of bills. it can't recognize the different denominations.

I honestly doesn't. If you look at the description, it says it would. However, if you use any newspaper, cut to the exact size of a currency, and hide it between a stack of currency, it went through. So I called to Cassida and asked about this issue. His response was this is REALLY not meant to be for counterfeit. It just has this very minimal feature in case the counterfeit is VERY fake. He also mentioned if you need a machine which REALLY detects counterfeit, the cost would be much much much higher than this. Overall, the machine is very accurate in counting. We just have to hand-feel every piece of currency for counterfeit detection. I hope this helps. I honestly doesn't. If you look at the description, it says it would.

Go to the Franklin website at : http://www.franklin.com/corporate/manuals it is a very short manual, on about the last page you will see how to do currency conversion. You have to have entered the value of peso/dollar beforehand. Living in Mexico for a couple of years, my rule of thumb was to assume that the peso was 10 to 1 (easy to figure in your head) ... it is, of course more than that (more pesos to the dollar), but then you are always pleasantly surprised (you can graciously leave the 'extra" as a tip). I remember seeing a sign saying "Su propina es mi sueldo!" or, your tip is my pay. The alternative is to go to a cafe or place that has wifi, switch your smartphone to wifi, then look up the ACTUAL rate for the peso that day on the internet that. I own the BES 1250, like it but rarely used it for currency conversion.

No I am sorry, I don't think coins outside the US work on this. Unless the same size account for the same amount. For instance, a US "dime" is very small but is worth more than a penny ... you see? Foreign coins can be saved in the bank, but the "amount" would probably be incorrect.

NO !!! At least what i got . It was terrible, if you want to press each bill before counting sure it works, otherwise if you really need a counter stick with a higher quality product like accubanker you will have to spend $400 and up if you are serious about counting usedbills.

sorry I answered so late, this was for my dad; so he received as a gift, of the checks he had sent me, I don't see that it's when you write the amount it comes with it, and even the USD (us dollars); I believe no, can't be done

After you add and subtract numbers it will say the amount like this, " Five dollars and 37 cents." It doesn't mention pennies, nickels, etc., although it is US currency that comes with the register.

It should work fine if the bills are about the same shape as dollars. It just counts them, it doesn't recognize the face

If you are regarding peso as money? it cannot unless you can do the conversion from dollers to peso. It does not have a peso symbol.

I think it only recognizes coins from the USA. What country are you looking for?
