Description

I was again at Baltimore Comic Con (9/23) and Don Rosa kindly continued my art project there :-)
By drawing Scrooge's "Currency Market View" portraits, how old miser is thinking about our fiat currencies. Well, needing to say that Scrooge is following currencies very carefully, of course ;-)
This art project started already in 2018 when I was thinking about a "holy triptych" from USD, EUR & JPY, but then extended it a bit idea when visited again in BCCs.

As said, and illustrated now here, Scrooge's emotions are in line with market expectations: if having Indian Rupees in your portfolio... better to have only a small bag of them, and then rather having coins, sooner or later their scrap metal value is higher than their face value.
Charts for INR/USD and INR/gold show rising curves like a snake lifting itself from a basket. However, I guess Carl Barks didn't think that in 1957 when he made the cover for Uncle Scrooge #19. Anyway, the best you can do is to play with physical Rupee coins or rather with Paisas (1/100th of Rupee), just like Scrooge is thinking: just play with coins and smile, don't hold INR bigger amounts in your long-term portfolio.

This drawing is done on A3 size paper (30 x 42 cm, 11.7 x 16.5 inches), so it is about twice the size of what normal convention sketches are done (typically in comic book backboards). Liquid gold marker is for sure the best one for this kind of artwork.
