Here's an interesting notion:
Given that Scrooge is only richer than Glomgold by only a foot's length of
string, won't it mean that, if Magica even manages to steal Scrooge's first
dime, Scrooge will become the worlds' *second* richest duck, and his first
coin will lose its value to Magica?
All sorts of things could happen at this point:
Magica could try giving money to Scrooge. This could turn out to be quite a
lot, to compensate for the unusual stroke of bad luck that Scrooge seems to
have when losing his first coin, as shown in one of Barks' stories.
Magica could try to steal Glomgold's first rand, only to realize that it, in
turn, is now worthless to her, as stealing it has made Scrooge the world's
richest duck again.
Magica could try stealing anything worth 10 cents or more from Glomgold.
Alternatively, Magica could go for Glomgold's first coin directly, then steal
some small amount from Scrooge, enough to make him less rich than Glomgold.
