How to get currency symbol by currency code?

Question

I can get the currency code from the order object. How can I derive currency symbol by using it? Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Answer 1

Try this one:

Mage::app()->getLocale()->currency(Mage::app()->getStore()->getCurrentCurrencyCode())->getSymbol();

Answer 2

Store currency code eg. USD

$currency_code = Mage::app()->getStore()->getCurrentCurrencyCode();

store currency symbol eg. $

$currency_symbol = Mage::app()->getLocale()->currency( $currency_code )->getSymbol();

store currency name eg. US Dollar

$currency_name = Mage::app()->getLocale()->currency( $currency_code)->getName();

Answer 3

The following worked.

// store currency symbol eg. $ 
$currency_symbol = Mage::app()->getLocale()->currency( $currency_code )->getSymbol();

Answer 4

Try:

$currencyCode   = '';
$currency       = $order->getOrderCurrency(); //$order object
if (is_object($currency)) {
    $currencyCode = $currency->getCurrencyCode();
}
$currencySymbol = Mage::app()->getLocale()->currency($currencyCode)->getSymbol();
var_dump($currencySymbol);

Answer 5

Using any given currency code you can derive the symbol using Zend_Locale:

$curr = new Zend_Currency('en_US');
echo $curr->getSymbol();

Answer 6

Just pass the value in variable .. will return current currency format price

$Formatted_Price = Converted Price with Currency 
$Variable_Price  = Your Variable value
$Formatted_Price= Mage::helper('core')->currency($Variable_Price, true, false);
