Why did they throw coins at end of wedding in old time England?

It was a symbol of the groom not needing his bride's dowry to take care of her so he threw the coins (specifically to the children) as part of his generosity -- how he felt so honored with his gift from his new father-in-law (his bride) that he must spread it out to the community. Many cultures have done this -- Scotland, Ireland, Germany, even Iran. You can make a nod to this today by tossing those chocolate coins during the reception -- a good option if you wish to skip the garter toss, like more and more people are doing these days, and a great way to involve the kids at your wedding.

Which sources tell us about the Gupta Empire?
There are many inscriptions on stone tablets, clay tablets and gold coins that tell us about the Gupta Age and what happened in those days. There is a pillar in Allahabad that also has inscriptions on information about those days. Coins and literary works also throw light upon the reign of Samudragupta and other rulers of that time. Many foreigners who visited the country at that time had written accounts when they visited the court of the rulers. For e.g., Fa Hien had visited India to study and become a buddhist. He had written an account on his trip to India.
