The official Polish currency is zloty polski - zl (PLN). One zloty consists of 100 groszes. About six years ago the currency reform was carried out in Poland: its aim was to reduce the number of "zeros". As a result, the former 10,000 zl were replaced with 1 zl (one new Polish zloty). Since many people have found it quite complicated to get accustomed to the new way of counting money, you may sometimes hear of a car which costs "200 mln zlotys", when, of course, 20,000 new zlotys is meant.
