To be honest, I’m always a bit amazed that this doesn’t happen more often. Yesterday, I had to pay 50.93€ and handed the cashier 51.05€, because I’d rather have a 10ct coin and the cashier typically needs smaller coins more often.
In this case, it was obvious that I didn’t hand them the 5ct by accident, but that’s the sort of mind games I’ll play and so far, the cashiers were always a step ahead of me…
No, no, you’re mathing correct. I did receive 12ct back. But 12cts is a 2ct coin + a 10ct coin. If I would have given 51.00€, it would have been a 2ct coin + a 5ct coin back. I didn’t mention the 2ct coin, because it’s always involved.
And I didn’t have 3cts myself, otherwise I would have made it 51.03€, yeah.

Shouldn’t you have received 12cts? In order to get 10cts back you ought to give 51.03€. Or am I just not mathing today?
