Yes I think. I don't know what matches really, but the Curreycy symbol is present in fr-2007.ttb, so I guess it's needed, additionally to Euro sign.

hmm right. Didn't know.

yes. :) I don't have any idea just now, but I'm sure a combination exists and still not used. Or maybe another character can be deleted (very rare sign? ).
