ℹ️ About
The Yen Sign (¥) is a critical currency symbol used primarily for the Japanese Yen (JPY) and the Chinese Yuan (CNY). Within Unicode, it is defined as a Currency Symbol (Sc). Technically, it functions as an “European Terminator” in bidirectional text, meaning it typically follows or precedes numeric values in financial strings.
⚠️ Note: Do not confuse with ¥ (Fullwidth Yen Sign U+FFE5).
