Euro-currency Sign Symbol

There is no legacy Windows Alt code for Euro-currency Sign because it is not in either the OEM code page 437 or Windows-1252 tables. The Unicode codepoint is U+20A0, which you can use as ₠ in HTML, \20A0 in CSS, or type with Alt+8352 on Windows (BMP only). If your keyboard has no numeric keypad, use the Character Viewer, the HTML entity, or copy the character directly. Euro-currency Sign is outside both legacy code pages, which is why U+20A0 is the identifier that works across Word, HTML, CSS, Python and JavaScript. Euro-currency Sign has no named HTML entity, so use the numeric escape ₠ or the hex escape ₠.
