U+20B1 "₱" Peso Sign Unicode Character
Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+20B1 "₱" Peso Sign is a currency symbol representing the Philippine peso and, in some contexts, is also used for other peso-based currencies such as those of Mexico, Argentina, and Colombia. This distinctive character features a capital letter P with a double horizontal stroke through its stem, differentiating it from the single-stroke Philippine peso sign and from other similar currency symbols. It was added to the Unicode standard in version 3.2 in 2002 to provide a consistent digital representation for digital text, financial documents, and online transactions, helping to avoid confusion with the Latin letter "P" or the Philippine peso sign that is often typed as a simple uppercase P.
