In print and on computer keyboards we see a SINGLE line through the letter S to represent money sometimes and always to represent a dollar. If no other code follows the sign is for American dollars internationally.
However, when we first learned to write in elementary school, we were taught to use two vertical lines.
A single line is much neater looking and thus is preferable.
Both are used. Check here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dollar_sign
