He could be referring to the Euro which is now worth less than the
rouble (correct a few days ago). Currently finance systems are being
re written using extended variables to cope with the number of zeros
on the standard transactions. Cash machines are using standard form
for the balance in Euros.

==========================
As of today you have:

�24.45

�1234e+45

in your current account.

�20 has been deducted from your account
for this service.

Please never use this machine again.

=======================================

So Rev B (Rev A was buggy) may be right, or he's just a condescending
Yank.
