that's just the standard cent symbol used in us, and possibly euro, and 
other currencies

depanding on the font is whether it has a 'slash'(/) or a 'pipe'(|)

Go into Wordpad and type alt+0162 select it and change the font between 
Arial and Georgia (use Courier if you don't have Georgia) see the 
difference?

So in summary, both symbols are correct for the cent.
