[GNC] UYI currency

[David H]

*According to wikipedia unidad Indexada* (UI), ISO 4217 code UYI, is a
consumer price indicator for Uruguay.[8]
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uruguayan_peso#cite_note-8>

and

The present currency, the *peso uruguayo* (ISO 4217
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_4217> code: *UYU*) was adopted in 1993
and is subdivided <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Division_(mathematics)> into
100 *centésimos <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centesimo>*, although
centésimos are not currently in use.

So as you say Paul I guess Fred should be using UYU.

Cheers David H.
