สัญลักษณ์สกุลเงิน

This is a Unicode block containing characters for representing unique monetary signs or currencies. Many currency signs can be found in other Unicode blocks, especially if a currency symbol is not unique for a particular country.

The currency signs (or currency symbols) are, first of all, independent graphemes, which appeared a long time ago and were built on the basis of separate Cyrillic letters or Latin letters. Some of them were introduced in the XVII—XVIII centuries as a result of script evolution, since various currency names were shortened to simple marks and symbols. A great example is, for instance, the symbols oa dollar $ and pound £, plus the symbol of rouble, dating back to the XVII—XIX centuries. Another group of symbols was born at the end of the XX century — the beginning of the XXI century. The reason for that was the decision made by the government and authorities that ruled during that time. Such marks include euro €, Armenian dram ֏, Indian rupee ₹.

Every world currency has an assigned code, used on currency exchange markets, and a currency code symbol which is typically used when pricing goods in a store, or dishes in a restaurant for example. Some of them might be familiar — some less so. If you’re wondering which currency symbol you need, we have an idea for you: just explore this page and find the ones that interest you. It's especially important to distinguish between these signs if you are an intrepid traveller and love to visit different countries.
