India To Choose Symbol For Rupee Today

rupee_symbol

India’s government has held an open call for design ideas for a symbol for its currency, the rupee-to join those internationally recognized as the dollar, the euro, the pound and the yen. The submissions have been narrowed to five, with the winner to be chosen today. True/Slant’s Jeff Koyen thinks it’s going to be #4, above. But I’m pulling for #2, because of its nice, broad, highly visible lines. I also think something else could work?

Or maybe this more stylized versino of RuPaul?
