If your country uses USD then your computer's locale should be set to
USD, which means it should use the currency symbol ($) instead of the
tag.  If it's not doing this then it implies your locale is wrong or
broken.

You can fix this by adding something like:

LC_MONETARY=en_US

to force the currency locale into US to use the Symbol.

Unfortunately there's not a good way to NOT print the currency name.
There certainly is no UI for it.

Good Luck,
