Yen sign ,
Won sign and other east asian symbols exist in
Halfwidth and fullwidth forms 'narrow' (for use with 'western' texts) and 'wide' (for 'eastern' texts) forms. Wiktionary has achieved this. --

Yen sign and Yuan sign use the same glyph. Does this have to be acknowledged? -- John Maynard Friedman ( talk) 18:03, 21 November 2019 (UTC)
The Cifrão doesn't have a unicode code point. The consortium decided that it was just a double barred dollar sign = font choice. So on wikipedia we have an svg for it so I have no idea how to fit it into this template. -- John Maynard Friedman ( talk) 18:03, 21 November 2019 (UTC)
template:infobox punctuation mark (which is the basis for this template) has added a "see also" function, which this one needs (eg for the pound/lira, new shekel/old shekel). I will delay copying while redevelopment is ongoing. -- John Maynard Friedman ( talk) 18:03, 21 November 2019 (UTC)
I have put this Infobox live at Pound sign. Worth it (see the parameters available). Improvements will be tried & tested by {{ Infobox currency sign/sandbox}}. - DePiep ( talk) 22:12, 21 November 2019 (UTC)
For the currency think, the word "sign" and "symbol" is used (on this wiki). I prefer to have one only, and that one being "sign". So: use "currency sign".
Interestingly, in Unicode names it says "lira sign" etc., but its block name is "currency symbols". That is because for Unicode, everything not a script character (A, γ) is a symbol. But within currency talk, we can be more specific. - DePiep ( talk) 20:19, 22 November 2019 (UTC)
(This section described two technical problems visible only on mobile. Both have been fixed). -- John Maynard Friedman ( talk) 23:21, 23 November 2019 (UTC)
I suggest that it would be useful to have a line giving the ISO 4217 for the currency. I would be bold and just do it but the code for this infobox lacks any inline documentation to explain how it works. I haven't gotten past the first semester of Templates 101. :-D

|currency=

). In the
SIX company source link, the ISO 4217 definition does not hold any sign (just names & ABC-codes). So: the sign itself is not connected to the ISO-currency (-code, -definition). I'd prefer to not overload thios IB with currency/not-the-sign stuff. Of course, {{
Infobox currency}} and {{
Currency}} should cover all this. -
