World currency symbols as images, fonts and unicode. If you're building a shopping cart or some application that uses currency symbols or ISO 4217 codes, XE.com have many useful pages on currency, two of which are linked-to below.
This is a list of world currencies where each currency symbol is presented first as a graphic, then in three "Unicode-friendly" fonts: Code2000, Tahoma, and Arial Unicode MS.

ISO 4217 Currency Code List This is a list of global currencies and the three-character currency codes that are generally used to represent them. Often, but not always, this code is the same as the ISO 4217 standard. (The ISO -- or International Organization for Standardization -- is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies.)

The Code2000 font by James Kass. Code2000 is a highly recommended shareware font that contains all the currency symbols displayed on the XE.com currency symbols page. It is a Unicode-based font, as are many modern computer fonts and is one of the larger fonts available, the latest build has over 60000 glyphs.
The current version of the font has glyphs covering all of the CJK ideographs in the Basic Multilingual Plane of Unicode. Of course, much work remains on the CJK in Code2000. There are still many rough, filler glyphs among the CJK ideographs, but the latest version is much improved over the previous version.
Code2000 can display most symbols and many of the Unicode scripts reasonably well. There are at least rudimentary OpenType tables for many of the complex Indic scripts, and some of the OpenType Indic tables are fairly well advanced. But, Code2000 doesn’t yet cover Sinhala or Tibetan. Of the Philippine scripts, only Buhid is covered by Code2000. Although Code2000 has many glyphs for Arabic, Code2000 can not yet be recommended for Arabic text display. Code2000 can populate charts for Oriya and Kannada — but can not yet properly display text in those scripts.
Code2000 is built on, designed for, and tested with modern Windows operating systems. It is reported to work with Mac and Linux, too.
