DescriptionThe Unicode character ₽, or U+20BD, is known as the "Ruble Sign". It falls under the "Currency Symbols" block and the "Symbol, Currency" category in the Unicode standard. The ruble sign is the currency symbol for the Russian ruble, the national currency of the Russian Federation. It was officially adopted in 2013. The design of the symbol is a stylized Cyrillic letter "Р" (for "ruble") with a horizontal stroke, which is reminiscent of currency symbols such as the yen (¥), euro (€), and British pound (£). The symbol is often used in various economic and financial contexts where reference to the Russian currency is required.
