The choice of &#x20a0; puzzled me too, but if you look in the Unicode 
5.0 standard, you find it confusingly identified as the EURO-CURRENCY SIGN,
with the caveats: intended for ECU, but not widely used,
                          historical character; this is NOT the euro!
                         --> 20AC euro sign
