[QUOTE="chrisild, post: 1486897, member: 39"]Indeed. Decimal commas, and dots for high figures (1.000.000 = one million), are the way to go. :p In Portugal they used to have, in the pre-euro years, another interesting separator: The escudo symbol was $, and they would sometimes write "2$50" (ie. two escudos fifty centavos) on a 2.50 coin. You will probably know that this coin is a piece from the Portuguese "Unesco World Heritage" series; but I think it is the only one featuring prehistoric drawings. If you are into such themes and designs, you may also be interested in the Polish [url=http://www.krzemionki.info/]Krzemionki[/url] coins, to be issued [url=http://www.nbp.pl/homen.aspx?f=/en/banknoty/kolekcjonerskie/2012.html#m10]next week[/url].
