Guarani Sign ₲

The Guarani Sign character (₲) is a standard HTML entity defined in the HTML specification. In HTML source code, it can be written using the named entity reference ₲, the decimal numeric character reference ₲, or the hexadecimal numeric reference ₲. The character is assigned Unicode code point U+20B2 in the Universal Character Set.

The guarani sign (₲) is the currency symbol for the Paraguayan guarani (PYG). The symbol features a capital G with a vertical stroke. The guarani is named after the indigenous Guarani people. While less commonly encountered in international commerce, it is essential for content targeting the Paraguayan market.

Currency symbol entities are essential for e-commerce platforms, financial dashboards, and any web content that displays monetary values across different markets. Using the correct HTML entity or Unicode code point ensures that currency symbols render consistently regardless of the visitor's operating system, installed fonts, or browser configuration. For international websites, properly encoded currency entities enable accurate localization of prices and financial data.

When deciding how to encode the Guarani Sign character in your HTML documents, the named entity ₲ is generally the most readable choice for developers reviewing or maintaining source code. The decimal form ₲ and hexadecimal form ₲ are equally valid alternatives that work in contexts where named entities may not be supported, or when generating HTML output programmatically from server-side code. All three representations produce identical visual output in every modern web browser.

Use the guarani sign in pricing and financial content targeting Paraguay. The symbol is placed before the amount. For broader Latin American content, ensure this symbol is not confused with other similar currency symbols. Use numeric HTML references for consistent rendering.
