It's just one coin over yr shoulder standing backturned to the fountain,
The song "Arrivederci Roma" (Good bye Rome) reads :
ce sta na leggenda romana
legata a sta' vecchia fontana
per cui se ce butti un soldino
costrigni ar destino
a fatte tornà
there is a roman legend
bound to this old fountain
that if you throuw a coin in
you'll oblige the destiny
to let you be back
No two or three coins, just one to be back Rome !!

You're just supposed to throw a coin over your shoulder to ensure you return to Rome again. The three coins comes from the old old movie, three coins in a fountain.

Huh?
How about, you throw a coin in the Trevi and it means that you will return to Roma one day.
If you throw in two coins, you may never leave.
Better yet, throw yourself in-that will give you a night in a Roman prison-what an adventure that would be, hey.
Okay, no more jokes-a coin in the Trevi means that you will return to Roma one day.

One coin assures your return.
