Here is the story about the symbol for the new World Dollar:

You are getting even more and more creative; nice job. There is just one problem.... I wish you had really done the "FRONT" of your credit card and zoomed way in, so I could see the numbers!! :-) LOL

I hadn't ever seen that universal symbol for money before.

I too have never known of a universal symbol for money (well except indirectly maybe...the pawnbroker's balls).

Once again, I have learned something new on this site! Thanks, Teresa.

LOL, Adam.

JoDeen, I didn't know about the international symbol for currency either. I guess that's the sign to find the currency exchange at airports and other places. Here is what it is supposed to look like:

Please note that the "new world dollar" is a joke. For those who went to the link as I suggested, you would see "April Fools" as this was posted on April 1st. I rather like the symbol.
