You should see the pile of stuff I'm avoiding. It's worth a PhD in

poswald/python-money does the same and looks interesting. Might go there
and see how it works. It also has form and field helpers.
Although it has all the currencies and includes the correct number of
decimals in its CURRENCY dict it ignores them in calculations. You can
calculate with lengthy decimal tails and round it all at the end.
Which might be quite reasonable. The alternative is to round everything
to the correct number of decimals for the nominated currency before a
calculation. Might speak to an accountant or banker on that. I suspect
bankers round it at every step and catch the shavings in their hats.
Also, despite using decimal.Decimal under the covers it wants its money
as strings.
Python 3.6.3
>>> from money import money
>>> print(money.Money(23.45, 'AUD'))
AUD 23.449999999999999289457264239899814128875732421875
>>> print(money.Money('23.45', 'AUD'))
AUD 23.45
>>> money.CURRENCY['AUD'].decimals
2
>>> money.CURRENCY['AUD'].symbol
'$'
>>> money.CURRENCY['AUD'].name
'Australian Dollar'
>>>
Still thinking about this.
