title: Locale Currency Symbol
body: <p>I having some problems getting the default currency symbol of the system.
  I am getting the currency symbol this way:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Currency currency = Currency.getInstance(Locale.getDefault());
  Log.v("TAG",currency.getSymbol());
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>When the system language is in <code>English (United States)</code> the right symbol shows up (<code>$</code>).
  But when i choose the language <code>Portuguese (Portugal)</code> it returns this symbol <code>¤</code>.</p>
  
  <p>What can be causing this?</p>
