公衆電話 公共电话
A public [[phone]], with payment by inserting money (usually coins). Often seen furnished inside [[phone booth]]s and seen alongside [[phone book]]s.

Traditional Japanese payphones are fat and green and often include a card reader in addition to a typical coin slot.

Don't use this tag where a [[phone booth]] is visible, but the payphone inside is not. Do use it instead of phone booth for free-standing or wall-mounted payphones without any sort of enclosure.
