+/** is the UNO representation of the Automation type <code>CY</code>, also know
+    as <code>CURRENCY</code>.
+    <p>
+    A <code>CY</code> could actually be represented as `hyper` in UNO
+    and therefore a typedef from `hyper` to a currency type would do.
+    But a typedef cannot be expressed in all language bindings. In the case
+    where no typedefs are supported the actual type is used. That is, a
+    typedef'd currency type would be represented as <code>long</code> in Java.
+    The information that the <code>long</code> is a currency type is lost.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    When calling Automation objects from UNO the distinction between
+    `hyper` and a currency type is important. Therefore
+    Currency is declared as struct.
