Hello Håvard!

>>the globe in the first panel has no continents drawed in!
>>It´s all blue! And over this globe, it is a very little hovering scroll,
>>that is all empty!

There should be:    "Uncle Scrooge"           at the top of  the panel
                                 "in"                                  in the little scroll
                                 "Return to Xanadu"       on the globe


>>This coin is dated 1916. Is this a special coin, that has been
>>mentioned in another story?

You bet it is! It is the only such coin still available! As a matter of  fact,
it is "the *rarest* coin in the world!"
Why? It's down there in the spoiler section.

In U$ 5 (March '54), Uncle Scrooge tries to make millions selling
"the *rarest* coin in the world!" But how can he find / aquire it?
The trick is to *make* it rare.
He picks the 1916 quarter has just paid him and decides to make it
the rarest coin.
Thanks to a huge advertising campaign, he buys back every single
1916 quarter, then dumps the whole load into the ocean.
However his own 1916 (the only one, now) gets  damaged and thus
worthless.
The ducks have to go get another one down in the deep blue.
And that's how they discover... "The Secret of Atlantis"!
