Well, there (sort of) already is--at least as a display symbol, even
though on my keyboard it's located exactly at Shift-4 that many probably
would expect. And that is the ¤ symbol.[1] I personally never see any
real use for it though ...

In case it doesn't diplay "correctly" on your screen, it looks like a
small circle with four spikes attached in the four directions indicated
by an X.
