You can use a character class to define one of several characters, as well they dont need to be escaped.

'€ and £'.replace(/[£€]/g, '$'); //=> '$ and $'

use this replace(/[\€\£]/g,'$') You can mention 2 or more characters in square brackets to match them individually.

Use the OR operator to combine the pound and euro symbols (of which you do not need to escape). The resulting regex would be:

/€|£/g
