[Ti] How do I get Euros from the keyboard?

[Robert Nicholson]

Here is some relevant information about this topic

Specie and species make a fascinating case. Both words come from a 
Latin word meaning "kind", but they do not form a singular-plural pair; 
they are separate non-countable nouns. Coins, such as nickel s, euro s, 
and cents are specie, but there is no plural. The idea is "payment in 
kind". And species, the "kinds of living things", is the same in 
singular and plural.
    Some names of elements, such as nickel, have plurals in 
non-chemical uses, as "five nickels to the quarter".
    Some non-countable substance nouns like "tea" or "wood" have 
plurals that mean "varieties of..." tea, wood, etc.
