How to find 2nd largest value in a column?
MAX finds the largest value. =LARGE(A:A,2) will find the second largest. =SMALL(A:A,3) will find the third smallest
You need to:
Get a table with currecy and their signs.
(you can use this site:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_currencies

Copy to Excel.

Use this topic

to get this UDF:
Code:
Function GetTextValue(ByVal arg As Range) As String      
GetTextValue = arg.Cells(1,1).Text  '//Cell value (or top left cell value if range is more than one cell) 
End Function


And then use this formula
=VLOOKUP(LEFT(GetTextValue(G2),1),$B$2:$C$279,2,0)

Example attached:
