This new symbol was selected for the Indian rupee. I personally think it looks pretty sharp. It will start appearing in the near future.

And he that hath lyberte ought to kepe hit wel / For nothyng is better than lyberte / For lyberte shold not be wel sold for alle the gold and syluer of all the world.

The new rupee symbol resembles the ancient Egyptian Eye of Horus, but backwards:

It is a mix of the Roman "R" and some Hindu letter, both representing the first letter of "rupee".

And he that hath lyberte ought to kepe hit wel / For nothyng is better than lyberte / For lyberte shold not be wel sold for alle the gold and syluer of all the world.
