Yellow money

I always just thought it was gold coins, which Scrooge certainly would have
saved in the money bin. (U.S. had gold coins throughout the 19th century -
the $20 gold piece was what you sometimes saw the cowboys flipping in the
bar in old movies.) Now a $20 gold piece is worth much more to collectors
than just the value of the gold.

As far as reading comics in other languages, I'd be happy to read them in
French, German, or Italian (sorry, I can't read any Scandinavian languages
or Dutch and am just beginning with Spanish) -- IF I could buy them here.
It's a bit much to go to Europe every month just to buy comics -- even
getting them used in Europe makes that a pretty expensive hobby....
