Larry, I tend to use the dollar sign for sighted folks, and I write the word Dollar after the value for fellow Blind readers, only because I know that with a screenreader, I think it is more intelligible to hear 3 dollars instead of $3.

A funny final note, some years ago I had written a money amount as $# my friend was perplexted why I would type a dollar sign number sign? Well, certainly when I did read Braille, before they ruined it, thats the way it were written.
