    Don Rosa was such a worthy successor to Carl barks. There are a number of duck stories that have to do with certain specific coins. I'll have to research which ones...

    Quite true. Many stories feature Scrooge's old number one, the first dime he ever earned.

    Here's a classic Carl Barks story featuring coins that I could think of off-hand, even having a darkside one (sort of, it's a made up country):
    The Secret of Atlantis

    edited to add:
    There's even an article online by the illustrious Q. David Bowers about coins in these comics:
