currency

id | symbol | description | country | date_added | date_updated

Solution

I believe you better should have two tables. One table for currency descriptions with fields id, symbol, description, country and other table related to this for daily currency rates with fields currency_id, rate, time_updated.

OTHER TIPS

The question is if you really need the date_added. I think this is a information which is not really required.

If you want to update it regulary, I would implement a column "rate", which gives you the value in comparison of Euro or US$ as example. This way people can get a better impression how much 1 Unit of the currency is worth.

Otherwise this looks to be quite okay.
