Currency Symbols
World currency signs and monetary marks.
Where these characters come from
The Currency Symbols block was added so that plain text could represent monetary units without relying on images or local encodings. New signs are still added as countries introduce them.
How reliably they render
Established signs render everywhere. Recently added ones — including several introduced in the past two decades — are missing from older fonts and are the most likely here to appear as empty boxes.
Questions
Why does a currency sign show as a box?
Newer signs are the usual culprit. Several currency symbols were added to Unicode within the last two decades and are missing from older system fonts, so devices that have not been updated cannot draw them.
Should the symbol go before or after the amount?
It depends on the locale, not the character. English convention puts it before the number, while much of continental Europe places it after with a space. Follow the convention of the audience you are writing for.
