Description insp 2015-01-13 15:58:15 UTC 
Indian Currency Symbol in Unicode ('₹') is displayed as question mark by default irrespective of locale settings (Bug # 723145).

As per guidelines here: http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Locale_Settings#Adjusting_Currency_Symbols If I try to set the currency symbol for Indian Rupee (Symbol: INR; ISIN/CUSIP: 356) to just '₹' (without quotes), it turns to a question mark (?). But if I set it to '₹.', that is along with another character before or after it, then the currency symbol stays.

We should be able to set the currency symbol to just ₹

(As far as I know, Indian rupee is the only currency which has incorrect symbol set to it by default in the securities dialogue box, but that is probably a separate issue or may be it is related. I have no idea)

First bug id in the previous description should be bug # 742002 rather than 723145 (Sorry)

Thank you for the additional information. That looks like a useful hint to the cause.

I have marked this bug (742868) as a duplicate of bug 742002 so they can be treated as one.
