Heading coins

Forget about rice, after a real Polish wedding ceremony you will get bombarded with coins.

Yes, coins. The good thing is that the newlyweds can keep the money (I cannot help it, I'm Dutch). The bad thing is that you will need the scrape them from the floor yourself, up until the last Grosz! That is the equivalent of 0.0022 Euro. But when the first signs of a possible hernia start to appear you will receive assistance.

The score:

🇵🇱
0.01 (1 grosz) ✔️
0.02 (2 grosze) ✔️
0.05 (5 groszy) ✔️
0.10 (10 groszy) ✔️
0.20 (20 groszy) ✔️
0.50 (50 groszy) ✔️
1 (1 złoty) ✔️
2 (2 złote) ✔️
5 (5 złotych) ✔️

0.01 (1 Euro cent) ✔️

1 (1 Euro) ✔️
2 (2 Euro) ✔️

So that's all possible coins which were thrown at us, considering the nationalities of our guests. Just a quick mention that the 1 and 2 Euro cent coins cannot be used in the Netherlands anymore like in most other Euro countries. I could not resist a grin when noticing those coins, very...Dutch.

Now, we're not there yet, the other coins our guests threw...

Spanish, Albanian, Swiss and Hungarian currency. And a very old Polish phone coin 😂 The A stands for Automat I believe. 

To the non-Polish readers apart from the Dutch wedding guests, this is how it went. Check the video below and see the moment I was heading a 5 złoty coin thrown by wujek Jurek (uncle George). Nearly went K.O.😁

All in all a great experience and a nice tradition, I hope you liked to read it.
