The font looks like Arial to me. You'll notice that in the character map
image below, the cent symbol has a vertical line through it; it's only
in the running text of the page (which is in a different font) that the
diagonal line appears.

But again, I think the author of the page just picked an "obvious" sign,
but it's not official AFAIK.

Cheers,
Philip
