I have not visited Rome yet! How wonderful to find out that they are used for such a worthy cause! Indeed, Sue! Hope to make a third visit in and am now even more excited to through in my coin! My dad visited Rome in the 70s and threw a coin in Trevi Fountain, and I visited about 2 years ago.
I wonder what happened to the coins before ? Wow that is an interesting fact! Now at least people can really tell where their coins are going. Very true! I tossed my coin in ! I am headed back finally this year. More importantly when I was there we were told the Legend of the Virgin. That is if you drink the water you will be made a virgin again… Must of made me some kind of power-virgin haha. I read about this a month or so before our trip, so awesome that the money in the fountain is put to a good charitable cause!
I had to do quite a bit of research to find out what exactly happens to the coins. But very glad it does go to charity! Why am I not the owner of this fountain?! Jennifer, it is very interesting blog post, I have read it with please. Thanks, Victor! It is an amazing gesture to toss a coin in the water of Trevi Fountain to dream next trip there.
Anyway,it is very good idea and the money goes to charity or money utilized to maintain such a historical fountain in Italy. May God bless you to drop more coins in to the water there.

Me again, it is so lovely to know, Fendi for Fountain, Fendi Fashion House in Italy is investing lot of nickel for restoring and restoring the world famous Trevi Fountain.
My last visit to Rome was in , and I tossed a coin into the Fountain de Trevi. Will be returning this September It works!! I had been to Rome in Jan and visited Trevi fountain, also threw the coin correctly but its gonna be 6 years and ….. Most of the leaders taking part in the photo opportunity on the sidelines of a summit of the Group of 20 world's largest economies just tossed the coin over their right shoulder.
President Joe Biden skipped the event. The leaders were handed one euro coins specially minted for the occasion, showing Leonardo da Vinci's Vetruvian man, the symbol of Italy's G20 presidency, portrayed on the flip side. The Trevi Fountain, completed in , covers the entire facade of Palazzo Poli in central Rome with its statues of Tritons guiding the shell chariot of the god Oceanus illustrating the theme of the taming of the waters.
