Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2009013465A1] A method of sorting documents of value comprises: a) forming (40-46) a stack (12) of documents of value, the stack including two or more batches (16, 20, 24) of documents of value, each batch of documents of value being provided with first and second separators (18, 19; 22, 21; 26, 23) to separate the batch from an adjacent batch; and, b) sequentially feeding all the documents in the stack through a sorting machine to inspect the documents and to sort (50) the documents into one or more output stations in dependence upon the results of the inspection, and sorting (52) all first separators to a separator output station.
