Foreign currency symbolism (2 Viewers)

[FDLmold]

If a currency is not decimalized, how can you denote, on a chip, the difference between the "main" currency and the "sub" currency? For instance, pounds and shillings. Is symbols the only way?

England has pounds and pents. Not sure about the rest of Europe.
So £ and p.

The important parts have kronor and ören. Then there are a few odd countries where they have:

Euros and cents

I’ve seen many European casinos use fractional numbers. So instead of a quarter being 25c, it’s €1/4.

That would be fairly unique on an American chip set. I'll have to think about that.

€ and ¢ for what I've seen in Europe
CHF in Switzerland and I never seen a frac in a Swiss casino

If a casino is using ¢ for Euro-cents, they are mistaken. The correct symbol is c.

The comma instead of a period alarms me every time I see it. You get used to glancing at #,###.## and ###,## freaks me out and I end up doing triple takes.

 

[1A25R]

Well I think because we are used to see #'###'### and #'### for millions an thousands a #,## it's clearly cents

Now that is strange.. they love the decimal, why wouldn't they just do E0.25? ( i cant find the symbol for euro)

Here's 10, copy-paste them and let me know if you need more: €€€€€€€€€€.

(BTW: these are genuine European Bank issued Euro signs; not the counterfeit Swiss ones that @1A25R posted above).
