    NSString *currencyCode = @"EUR";
    NSLocale *locale = [[[NSLocale alloc] initWithLocaleIdentifier:currencyCode] autorelease];
    NSString *currencySymbol = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@",[locale displayNameForKey:NSLocaleCurrencySymbol value:currencyCode]];
    NSLog(@"Currency Symbol : %@", currencySymbol);
