In fact I didn't (I looked it up now), but most of such $'s are
removed in Sweden too.  Sometimes they are replaced by "KR" for Kronor,
and sometimes they are replaced by Scrooge's monogram "JvA" (Joakim
von Anka).  Moneybags with "$" in the original sometimes get "100000"
or something like that instead.
