Knocked these out while Sheezy was down, instead of working on anything I'm actually supposed to be doing. I think the A in the circle that's supposedly the Amero symbol is shitty and lazy, aside from the abrupt departure from the modern trend of using curvy sans serif fonts with dual slashes.

I like the lowercase one best. It's riding the coat tails of the Euro, perhaps. The uppercase rounded A just doesn't register visually as either a letter or currency symbol; it's like some fucked up gazebo. I included it anyway just because.

Sorry if the lowercase "a" lacks some smoothness. There's still a tiny imperfection in the 10 o'clock vicinity, but it's beyond my powers to fix it without wrecking the shape entirely, so it will have to stay for now.
