# Fixed-point (Currency)

The **Currency** data type is intended for monetary values and is a fixed-point data type with a default value of zero (0.0000).

It is fixed at a maximum of 4 decimal places and is designed to reduce rounding errors.

**Currency** can store a number between -922337203685477.5808 and 922337203685477.5807.

If you try to store a number in a data type that is unable to fit that number you will receive an **Overflow Error**.

**Declaration**: var myvariable : currency;

A stand-alone example follows -

```pascal
procedure ScriptEvent (var Value : variant);
var
  mycurrency : currency;
begin
  mycurrency := 98765.1234;
  LogInfo('The value of mycurrency is '+FloatToStr(mycurrency));
end;
```
