Currency Symbols
There are 24 currency symbols on this page, every one a real Unicode character you can copy with a single click. The most looked-up are Dollar Sign $ (U+0024), Euro Sign € (U+20AC) and Pound Sign £ (U+00A3).
Every currency has a sign, and pasting the right one keeps prices readable and correct. This hub lists the major world currency symbols, from the dollar, euro, pound and yen you type often, to the rupee, won, peso, franc and the many marks used across the world. Each entry shows the code point and HTML entity you need to render the sign reliably in an invoice, a price list or a web page.

How do you copy and paste currency symbols?
Click the character in the grid above and it goes straight to your clipboard, then paste it with Ctrl+V on Windows or Cmd+V on a Mac. Nothing is uploaded and nothing is installed: these are plain text characters, so they land in a document, a spreadsheet cell, a caption, a username or a line of code and keep working when the font changes.
If you need the code rather than the character, open any symbol's own page from the table below. Each one lists the Unicode code point, the decimal and hex HTML entities, the CSS content escape, the JavaScript escape, the UTF-8 bytes and the Windows alt code where one exists, each with its own copy button.

How do you type currency symbols without copying?
On Windows, the 5 characters here that have an alt code can be typed by holding Alt and entering the digits on the numeric keypad. For anything else, press Win+. to open the emoji and symbol panel, or use Insert then Symbol in Microsoft Word, where you can also type the hex code point and press Alt+X.
On macOS, add the Unicode Hex Input source in Keyboard settings, then hold Option and type the four hex digits of the code point. On ChromeOS and on Linux with GTK or IBus, press Ctrl+Shift+U, type the hex code point and press Enter or space. On the web, the numeric HTML entity in the table above always works, whatever the reader's keyboard.
Frequently asked questions
How do I copy a currency symbol?
Click any glyph in the grid on this page and it is copied to your clipboard instantly. Paste it with Ctrl+V or Cmd+V. Each symbol also has its own page with the code point, HTML entity and alt code.
What are the most used currency symbols?
The ones people look up most in this set are Dollar Sign $ (U+0024), Euro Sign € (U+20AC), Pound Sign £ (U+00A3) and Yen Sign ¥ (U+00A5). All of them are listed with their codes in the reference table on this page.
Do currency symbols have Windows alt codes?

Can I use currency symbols in HTML and CSS?
Yes. Every symbol here has a numeric HTML entity that works in any browser, and 5 also have a named entity such as $. In CSS use the escape shown on each symbol page inside a content property, and keep the file saved as UTF-8.
Are these currency symbols real text or images?
They are real Unicode text characters, not images. That means they paste cleanly into documents, captions, usernames and code, and they scale with your font instead of blurring.
Why does a currency symbol show as an empty box?
An empty box or question mark means the font in use has no glyph for that code point, or the text was decoded with the wrong character set. The character itself is still correct, so switching to a font with wider coverage, or serving the page as UTF-8, brings it back.
