The second day of the G20 begins with tossing the coins into the Trevi Fountain, well-known propitiatory rite that serves to ensure the return to Rome and, according to other Mediterranean variants, to soften one’s financial fortunes. In Rome, dice are not drawn but cards: it is always paganism, but pragmatic.
Naturally, the greats of the earth did not throw any cents, but a coin minted especially for them, with the Vitruvian Man, symbol of the summit, depicted above – and who knows if some urban diver will not start looking for them, at night, to steal them. , as has occasionally happened to the coins that remain on the bottom of the Fountain, before being distributed to charity.
