Actually, in reality, it can be either a single-character euro
symbol, letters EU, or letters EUR. The symbol should be written
after the number AFAIK, but I have seen it written up front quite
often, like $, although usually with a space between it and the
number. Even with dollar or other currencies, some places use the
three-char international designations (USD for US dollar, for
example). Same goes for countries that haven't switched to euro yet.
For example, Poland may use ZL, the traditional designation for
Zloty, or PLN, its international designation.
