fountain coins
Pool of pennies
Fountain coins are coins tossed into fountains, pools, or wishing wells, usually while making a wish.
The tradition treats the coin as a small offering or symbolic payment for luck.
Famous fountains like Rome's Trevi attract thousands of coins daily: She threw a fountain coin over her shoulder and wished for love.
The coins are typically collected and donated to charity.
