The most unusual superstitions about coins
The quarter has long been involved in various unusual rituals and traditions. Many superstitions have reached our days. Some of us still shake the change in the pocket on the new moon.
Honoring Charon
Ancient Greeks and Romans paid the ferryman Charon for the transition of the soul of the deceased from the earthly world to the spiritual on the river Styx. For that the deceased was put a coin under the tongue. Such tradition was kept by cultures up to the beginning of the 20th century.
Ancient China
Chinese culture preserves the rituals of using coins not only for feng shui. The ancient text of the Book of Changes tells of the use of coins in divination. If you throw three identical coins into the air and draw a hexagram by connecting the places where they fall, you can use the book to interpret your future.
Great Britain
Silver sixpences were particularly popular in the UK at Christmas. The tradition of putting a lucky coin in the pudding meant good luck and prosperity for the whole of the following year, unless you swallowed it. A sixpence was also put in the bride's shoe for a successful and long marriage.
There was a time when you could drink in taverns for a sixpence all day long, so in some places the association of the sixpence with drinking still lives on.
Argentina and other countries
Give a quarter or other coin if you've been given knives, mirrors, or other objects that can be used as edged weapons. This way you will neutralize their negative impact by making a purchase out of the gift.
Fountains with coins
This tradition and superstition is still quite popular. Throwing a coin into the fountain to attract good luck and return to that country is a sacred thing for every tourist.

Can I dig up a quarter?
This question is asked by many people because everything that is associated with buried things is quite mystical. Of course, if you found a quarter in the cemetery in the temple or another energetically powerful place, do not test fate or take on all that was invested in that coin. According to some superstitions, the coin can be dug up only if it lies heads up, in other cases it is better to leave it in place. Collectors and numismatists refute this view.
Thais believe that if you leave a coin on the floor, it will close your cash flow for a long time because you have offended the universe not accepting its gift. Can you think of at least one superstition that is observed in your family or culture?
