Nimbus Roman: wrong glyph for ₤ (U+20A4 LIRA SIGN) #38

In the Nimbus Roman font, the character ₤ (U+20A4 LIRA SIGN) looks like "zł". It should look similar to £ (U+00A3 POUND SIGN) instead.

Hehe, Polish złoty instead of Italian lira. Złoty does not have a unicode but is still in use. Lira has a unicode but is no longer in use. Other fonts also have this error: the entire P052, C059, and Nimbus Roman families.

Also ₣ (U-20A3 FRENCH FRANC SIGN) should look like an F with a bar. All fonts show Fr or Cr (U+20A2) ligatures instead.
