Unicode block currency symbols

The Unicode block currency symbol (Engl. Currency Symbols , U + 20A0 to U + 20CF) contains many currency symbols that do not consist of letters or normal characters of the local languages (ie z. B. not DM for German marks , S for Schilling , Fr. for francs or руб. For rubles ). Also not included are the currency symbols $, ¢ , £ , ¥ and the general currency symbol ¤ , which have already been included in ASCII (the dollar sign ) or ISO 8859-1 (the other characters mentioned) and thus in the first two Unicode blocks ( Basic Latin and Latin-1, supplement ), as well as the baht ( ฿ ), the riel ( ៛ ), the rial ( ﷼ ) and the afghani ( ؋ ), which have also been used elsewhere.

16 free spaces are currently reserved in this block for future expansions.
