So, here’s how to put the symbol (sign) of the ruble on the Mac keyboard:
⌥ Alt (Option) + eight. Please note that the keyboard layout must be Russian (and not just Russian, but “Russian PC”), for just “Russian” or “USA” the same “hot keys” will give out a different character.
Yes, it’s that simple!
Note: If you use the Russian keyboard instead of the Russian PC keyboard, then there is another way to type the ₽ symbol, described below.

And here are a few more shortcuts for quickly entering icons for other currencies:
- Euro (€) — ⇧Shift + ⌥ Alt (Option) + 2.
- British pound (£) — ⌥ Alt (Option) + 3. The keyboard layout is English.
- Japanese yen (¥) — ⌥ Alt (Option) + Y.
With the dollar, of course, everything is much simpler. It is printed on the keyboard of any Mac, so even a green beginner will guess that in order to enter the $ sign, you need to switch to the English layout, and then press ⇧Shift and number four. If the dollar is some other – Australian, New Zealand, Canadian, the keyboard shortcut does not change. But the icon for the cent, of course, you already need to know – this ⌥ Alt (Option) + four.
