I want to add the insert coin symbol (see picture) to my messages in SSFIVAE for PC. The image shows the text message screen on Xbox, which is not available on PC.
How can input the insert coin symbol?
I know I can add special characters with Alt + number (e.g. Alt+0128 is €). More codes are on http://www.alt-codes.net/ , but there is no insert coin symbol.

The Microsoft Points symbol is really just the generic currency character (¤). When this symbol's character code appears in text on the XBox, the Dashboard renders it as the Microsoft Points symbol instead. Consequently, there's no trivial way to use the actual symbol on any other platform.
You could use a font that rendered ¤ as the MS Points symbol instead, but both you and the recipient of the message would have to be using the same font. Windows Live uses such a font and you can paste
¤into the text window or type ALT + 0164 using the numeric keypad (see image).Research sources: [1], [2]
