Well I had to dig in and look at UtilFormatOut.formatCurrency.

It's using the ICU4j formatter to generate the currency.  The strange thing is
when I write a test class to compare the difference between that NumberFormatter
and the default Java one, I don't see a difference.  They both print "$10.00".
   But somehow in my ofbiz the number comes out "US$10.00".

Anyone know why this is?   I found a currency format string in
general.properties "##0.00" but playing with this doesn't fix the problem.

What is causing ICU4j to print "US$10.00" instead of "$10.00" like it's supposed to?
