Common Mistakes
⚠️
Mistake: Using the wrong currency symbol for a country
Fix: Each currency has a specific symbol: £ for British Pound, € for Euro, ¥ for Japanese Yen, $ for US Dollar. Never substitute one for another.
⚠️
Mistake: Incorrect placement of currency symbols for different locales
Fix: Different countries place currency symbols before (€50) or after (50€) the amount, with or without spaces. Check local formatting conventions. The ISO code (EUR, USD, GBP) is a safe fallback.
