Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+20C1 "" Saudi Riyal Sign is a currency symbol representing the Saudi riyal, the official monetary unit of Saudi Arabia, and was added to the Unicode Standard as part of version 14.0 in September 2021. It belongs to the Combining Diacritical Marks block but is intended for use as a standalone symbol, appearing as a two line crossbar design placed above numerals or as a distinct character in text. Its inclusion facilitates unambiguous digital representation of the Saudi riyal in electronic documents, financial systems, and global communication, aligning with Saudi government initiatives to standardize the currency symbol and replace alternative representations like "SR" or "﷼".
