Larry,
I tend to use the dollar sign for sighted folks, and I write the word Dollar 
after the value for fellow Blind readers, only because I know that with a 
screenreader, I think it is more intelligible to hear 3 dollars instead of 
$3.

Well Glen, for me where its really confusing on British sites where they 
list a
currincy with an l instead of a number 1.
A funny final note, some years ago I had written a money amount as $# my 
friend
was perplexted why I would type a dollar sign number sign?  Well, certainly
when I did read Braille, before they ruined it, thats the way it were 
written.
